Based on Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), they for instance multiply two polynomials of degree up to N or multi-evaluate one at N points simultaneously within quasi-linear time O(N.polylog N). An extension to (and in fact the mere definition of) polynomials over the skew-field H of quaternions is promising but still missing. The present work proposes three such definitions which in the commutative case coincide but for H turn out to differ, each one satisfying some desirable properties while lacking others. For each notion we devise algorithms for according arithmetic; these are quasi-optimal in that their running times match lower complexity bounds up to polylogarithmic factors.published version (11 pages) plus appendix (2 pages)Symbolic ComputationI.1;F.2.1text
