OpenAI reports: a power saving for exact discrete Fourier transforms
The manuscript reports one deterministic algorithm computing the exact complex discrete Fourier transform at every length n in O(n(log n)^(1−10^−13)) operations, including scalar preparation, scheduling and indexing, in its specified arithmetic model.
