In the preprint [vdH08], van der Hoeven considers the problem of multiplying two polynomials with floating-point coefficients, and give an algorithm to compute the product with small relative Newton error in time $O(np \log(np))$, where $n$ is the degree and $p$ is the required precision. In this paper, we describe a significantly simpler algorithm with the same time complexity and error bound. Independently, Bringmann and Cassis considered the near-convex min-plus convolution problem in [BC23a], and presented an algorithm to solve that problem. We observe that our algorithm can be adapted to that problem to speed up Bringmann and Cassis' algorithm by a logarithmic factor.
