Title: The Hanson--Wright inequality

Abstract: The Hanson--Wright inequality estimates the probability that a quadratic form applied at a random vector (with iid entries) differs significantly from its expected value. We present an elementary proof due to Rudelson--Vershynin whose main argument is a decoupling argument of Bourgain. No knowledge of probability theory is required.
