8. Labeling Hilbert spaces in this way make us able to define the operator analog of the saturated-index pairs for multiplying tensors in general relativity. When multiplying only two operators only on some pairs of isomorphic tensor factors we will use the same name for the two Hilbert spaces, whereas we use different names for all other Hilbert spaces

10. Both restrictions are due to the convention that different uses of the same circuit are considered here as different circuits. Notice that the situation in which a quantum system undergoes the evolution C2 by passing twice through the gate C does not correspond to a loop, since the two successive uses of channel C are represented as the cascade of two different channels.
