Title: An Elementary Exposition of Pisier's Inequality

Abstract: Pisier's inequality is central in the study of normed spaces and has important applications in geometry. We provide an elementary proof of this inequality by constructing an explicit linear proxy function for a suitable probability distribution, thus avoiding some non-constructive steps in previous proofs. We also show a simplification of Bourgain's construction which is sufficient to give a nearly tight matching lower bound.
