Made the question even more concise
Aug 25, 2019 at 6:37 comment added WiccanKarnak @The_Sympathizer yes, adding that would help a lot, as I mentioned in the question
Aug 25, 2019 at 6:36 comment added WiccanKarnak @GerhardPaseman can you please post it as an answer? It's exactly what I am looking for, thanks so much.
Aug 25, 2019 at 0:24 comment added Gerry Myerson @The, could be, or it could be that OP was unaware of how close FFT is to best possible. I was just trying to figure out which.
Aug 25, 2019 at 0:10 comment added The_Sympathizer @Gerry Myerson: I suspect sie's wondering if that $O(n \log n)$ is provably optimal, or there is something between $O(n)$ and $O(n \log n)$ (e.g. $O(n \log \log n)$ or similar). That is, is there a proven optimal bound, and if so, what is it?
Aug 24, 2019 at 23:59 comment added Gerry Myerson How much faster than $O(n\log n)$ are you hoping for? Just entering the data is already $O(n)$.

Aug 24, 2019 at 23:04 comment added kodlu Is your question regarding finite fields or the complex field?

Aug 24, 2019 at 22:41 comment added WiccanKarnak @GerhardPaseman can you prove so? (or if you already did that above, can you write it with big O notations/ give some upper limit that can't be crossed?)
Aug 24, 2019 at 22:38 comment added Gerhard Paseman (Assuming a commutative multiplication and cheap addition and subtraction) since arbitrary multiplication can be formed as a difference of squares, there should not be anything much faster (asympototically) than a general algorithm. If you have a specific domain or certain fixed parameters, there may be tweaks to the code that can help. Gerhard "What Size Is Your Problem?" Paseman, 2019.08.24.
