A quantum version of ring all-reduce reduces per-link communication by a factor of two using entanglement and superdense coding, without altering model or gradient computations. It achieves information-theoretically secure aggregation via verified entanglement, with a 2x overhead in GHZ copies, and provides exponential communication advantages in gradient conflict detection for specific auditing tasks.
