1.1 LANGUAGE MODELING OBJECTIVE
--------------------------------
The fundamental goal is to model P(x) = ∏ P(x_t | x_{<t})
where x is a sequence of tokens and x_{<t} are all tokens before position t.

In log space: log P(x) = Σ log P(x_t | x_{<t})

This is implemented as cross-entropy loss:
L_CE = -1/N Σ Σ y_t,i · log(p_t,i)

where:
- N is the batch size
- T is the sequence length
- y_t,i is the one-hot encoding (1 if token i is correct at position t, 0 otherwise)
- p_t,i is the predicted probability for token i at position t

"""
2.1 GSPO MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION
----------------------------------
GSPO extends standard policy gradient methods to group-based training.

The GSPO objective is:
L_GSPO = -𝔼_τ~π [log π(τ) · A(τ) · IS(τ)]

where:
- τ is a trajectory (sequence of tokens)
- π(τ) is the policy probability of generating trajectory τ
- A(τ) is the advantage function (how much better than baseline)
- IS(τ) is the importance sampling weight for group normalization

2.2 ADVANTAGE ESTIMATION
------------------------
We use Generalized Advantage Estimation (GAE):
A^GAE(t) = Σ_{l=0}^∞ (γλ)^l δ_{t+l}

where δ_t = r_t + γV(s_{t+1}) - V(s_t) is the TD residual

2.3 GROUP NORMALIZATION
-----------------------
In GSPO, we normalize advantages across the group:
A_norm(τ) = (A(τ) - μ_group) / σ_group

This ensures stable gradients across distributed training.

Ring all-reduce enables efficient gradient synchronization across GPUs.

2. Divide gradient tensor into N chunks
3. Reduce-scatter phase (N-1 steps):
   - Each worker sends chunk i to next neighbor
   - Each worker receives and adds to its chunk
4. All-gather phase (N-1 steps):
   - Each worker sends completed chunk to next
   - Each worker receives and stores chunk

- Communication: 2(N-1)/N * M bytes (M = model size)
