Isolophile 

Isolophilia is referred to as having a strong affection and preference for solitude, and to be alone. This is not necessarily a negative term either, or something that has negative effects. For some isolophiles, this can be as simple as preferring their own company, and going out by themselves to eat or go for coffee. Or perhaps just feeling much more comfortable by themselves.
She would prefer to stay home because she’s an isolophile; she enjoys her isolophilia.

isomorphism

Abstract algebra: Take a group G, and a group H, with a group operation *. G is isomorphic to H if there exist a map f: G->H such that:

1: f is injective
2: f is surjective
3: f(a*b)=f(a)*f(b) for all a,b in G

If f satisfies these three properties, f is called an isomorphism.
The map f: Z -> E given by f(a)=2a where Z is the integers and E is the even integers is an isomorphism.

Proof:
Showing injectivity

f(b)=f(a) => 2a=2b (from the given function) <=> a=b

Showing surjectivity
Suppose n is in E. n is an even integer hence n=2k for some integer k.

f(k)=2k=n, hence f is surjective.

Homomorphism:
f(a+b)=2(a+b)=2a+2b=f(a)+f(b)

Hence f is an isomorphism. Q. E. D.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
