The classical fast Fourier transform (FFT) allows to compute in quasi -linear time the product of two polynomials, in the circular convolution ring R[x]I(x(d) - 1) - a task that naively requires quadratic time. Equivalently, it allows to accelerate matrix -vector products when the matrix is circulant. In this work, we discover that the ideas of the FFT can be applied to speed up the orthogonalization process of matrices with circulant blocks of size d x d. We show that, when d is composite, it is possible to proceed to the orthogonalization in an inductive way up to an appropriate re-indexation of rows and columns. This leads to a structured Gram -Schmidt decomposition. In turn, this structured Gram-Schmidt decomposition accelerates a cornerstone lattice algorithm: the nearest plane algorithm. The complexity of both algorithms may be brought down to circle minus(d log d). Our results easily extend to cyclotomic rings, and can be adapted to Gaussian samplers. This finds applications in lattice-based cryptography, improving the performances of trapdoor functions.
