A low-technology estimate in convex geometry
  Let $K$ be an $n$-dimensional symmetric convex body with $n \ge 4$ and let $K\dual$ be its polar body. We present an elementary proof of the fact that $$(\Vol K)(\Vol K\dual)\ge \frac{b_n^2}{(\log_2 n)^n},$$ where $b_n$ is the volume of the Euclidean ball of radius 1. The inequality is asymptotically weaker than the estimate of Bourgain and Milman, which replaces the $\log_2 n$ by a constant. However, there is no known elementary proof of the Bourgain-Milman theorem.
