Abstract
We provide the final step in the resolution of Bourgain's slicing problem in the affirmative. Thus we establish the following theorem: for any convex body of volume one, there exists a hyperplane such that where is a universal constant. Our proof combines Milman's theory of -ellipsoids, stochastic localization with a recent bound by Guan, and stability estimates for the Shannon-Stam inequality by Eldan and Mikulincer.
