Fürer multiplication is an integer multiplication algorithm for very large numbers with a very low asymptotic complexity.

The Schönhage-Strassen algorithm was the asymptotically fastest multiplication method known from 1971 to 2007. In 2007, Martin Fürer announced a new algorithm with lower asymptotic complexity.[1]
