Apparently this FFT was first discovered by Gauss (1805). http://www.cis.rit.edu/class/simg716/Gauss_History_FFT.pdf

As a follow-up, let me recommend Püschel & Moura (2006) “Algebraic Signal Processing Theory”, https://arxiv.org/pdf/cs/0612077.pdf and Püschel’s other papers about similar topics.

Or in a different direction, DJB (2008), “Fast multiplication and its applications”, http://cr.yp.to/lineartime/multapps-20080515.pdf



Interesting to note that Fourier's two works were published in 1807 and 1822, so that work by Gauss also predates Fourier.
