The Fast Newton Transform (FNT)

The FNT is a novel algorithm for multivariate polynomial interpolation with a runtime of nearly Nlog(N), where N scales only sub-exponentially with spatial dimension, surpassing the runtime of the tensorial Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). We have proven and demonstrated the optimal geometric approximation rates for a class of analytic functions—termed Bos–Levenberg–Trefethen functions—to be reached by the FNT and to be maintained for the derivatives of the interpolants. This establishes the FNT as a new standard in spectral methods, particularly suitable for high-dimensional, non-periodic PDE problems, interpolation tasks, arising as the computational bottleneck in solving, e.g. 6D Boltzmann, Fokker-Planck, or Vlasov equations, multi-body Hamiltonian systems, and the inference of governing equations in complex self-organizing systems.
