The Fourier Transform is one of the most important linear transformations used in science and engineering. Cooley and Tukey's Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) from 1964 is a method for computing this transformation in time O(nlog n). From a lower bound perspective, relatively little is known. Ailon shows in 2013 an Ω(nlog n) bound for computing the normalized Fourier Transform assuming only unitary operations on pairs of coordinates is allowed. The goal of this document is to describe a natural open problem that arises from this work, which is related to group theory, and in particular to representation theory.
