https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2020/02/248147.php As a result of that consensus, I have just removed the FFT from suggestions of the GSoC projects.
FFT was added to that list due to feature requests to boost.math, see: https://github.com/boostorg/math/issues/303 I agree that writing FFT which supports all multiprecision types is a tremendous task. But if it's not in GSoC it has a really hard chance of being completed, ever. So maybe the right approach is to split this task into several smaller sub-tasks? Maybe first make a GSoC project for 1D FFT which works with math and all multiprecision and has speed comparable with libfftw when using double type (and is correctly templatized and designed, etc ;) Bjorn Reese via Boost said: (by the date of Wed, 5 Feb 2020 20:53:10 +0100)
FYI, Boost.Math already uses FFTW for Chesbyshev polynomials.
and uses boost.math code to jump-start. -- # Janek Kozicki http://janek.kozicki.pl/
