+"""Einsum operation with FP8 quantization support for Transformer Engine in JAX.
+
+This module provides an einsum implementation that decomposes einsum operations into
+a sequence of GEMMs, each with its own quantizer for FP8 support. It follows the
+pattern of jax.numpy.einsum but uses TE's optimized GEMM operations.
+
+This module provides an einsum implementation optimized for Mixture-of-Experts (MoE)
+models with per-expert quantization support. It leverages JAX's vmap and TE's dense
+layer to efficiently handle tensor contractions with a single batch dimension.
+
+Key Features:
+    - **Per-expert quantization**: Each expert can have independent scaling and quantization parameters
+    - **Automatic differentiation**: Full gradient support via dense layer's VJP
+    - **Single batch dimension**: Optimized for MoE patterns (expert dimension)
+    - **Explicit API**: Requires quantizer_dim when using quantization
+
+Limitations:
+    - **NN layout only**: LHS last dim must contract, RHS last dim must not contract
+    - **Single batch dimension**: Only one batch dimension supported
+    - **2-operand only**: Only supports binary operations
+    - **Explicit quantizer_dim**: Required when quantizer_sets is provided
+
+    For operations that don't meet these requirements (e.g., routing operations
+    like "BSM,BSEC->EBCM"), use jnp.einsum instead, or set fallback=True to
+    automatically fall back to jnp.einsum when the operation is not supported.
+
+Example - MoE Forward Pass with Per-Expert FP8:
+    ```python
+    from transformer_engine.jax.einsum import einsum
+    from transformer_engine.jax.quantize import QuantizerFactory, QuantizeMeta, QuantizeMetaSet
+
+    # Create per-expert quantizers (E experts)
+    quantizer_sets = [
+        QuantizerFactory.create_set(
+            fp8_recipe=recipe,
+            quantize_meta_set=QuantizeMetaSet(
+                x=QuantizeMeta(), kernel=QuantizeMeta(), grad=QuantizeMeta()
+            )
+        ) for _ in range(num_experts)
+    ]
+
+    # MoE pipeline with per-expert quantization,
+    # 1. Dispatch: BSM,BSEC -> EBCM (no quantization - routing operation)
+    dispatched = jnp.einsum("BSM,BSEC->EBCM", tokens, routing)
+    # Or with fallback:
+    # dispatched = einsum("BSM,BSEC->EBCM", tokens, routing, fallback=True)
+
+    # 2. MLP Up: EBCM,EMH -> EBCH (per-expert quantization)
+    hidden = einsum("EBCM,EMH->EBCH", dispatched, expert_up_weights,
+                   quantizer_sets=expert_quantizers, quantizer_dim='E')
+

+    ```
+
+Implementation Details:
+    The einsum function works by:
+    1. Parsing the einsum equation to identify the single batch dimension and contracting dimensions
+    2. Validating that quantizer_sets length matches the quantizer dimension size
+    3. Creating a vmapped version of TE's dense layer over the batch dimension
+    4. Vmapping over quantizer_sets to provide per-batch (e.g., per-expert) quantization
+    5. Leveraging dense's existing VJP for automatic differentiation
+
+    This design reuses TE's well-tested dense layer infrastructure while enabling
+    per-expert quantization for MoE models with minimal code complexity.
