Power-law interactions with strength decaying as 1/rα in the distance r provide an experimentally realizable resource for information processing, whilst still retaining long-range connectivity. We leverage the power of these interactions to implement a fast quantum fanout gate with an arbitrary number of targets. Our implementation allows the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) and Shor&#39;s algorithm to be performed on a D-dimensional lattice in time logarithmic in the number of qubits for interactions with α&le;D. As a corollary, we show that power-law systems with α&le;D are difficult to simulate classically even for short times, under a standard assumption that factoring is classically intractable. Complementarily, we develop a new technique to give a general lower bound, linear in the size of the system, on the time required to implement the QFT and the fanout gate in systems that are constrained by a linear light cone. This allows us to prove an asymptotically tighter lower bound for long-range systems than is possible with previously available techniques.&nbsp;</p>1 aGuo, Andrew, Y.1 aDeshpande, Abhinav1 aChu, Su-Kuan1 aEldredge, Zachary1 aBienias, Przemyslaw1 aDevulapalli, Dhruv1 aSu, Yuan1 aChilds, Andrew, M.1 aGorshkov, Alexey, V.  uhttps://arxiv.org/abs/2007.00662
