In general, the Kronecker product is not commutative; however, for our purposes, we can assume that it is. We are able to do this because there exist permutation matrices P\, and Q\, such that A \otimes B = P \, (B \otimes A) \, Q. That is, all entries in A \otimes B are in B \otimes A except in different locations. This meets our basic criteria: that all entries are preserved, so no permutation matrices need to be calculated or applied.
