| contents | The aim of this expository note is to prove that any $1$-subgaussian random vector is dominated in the convex ordering by a universal constant times a standard Gaussian vector. This strengthens Talagrand's celebrated subgaussian comparison theorem. The proof combines a tensorization argument due to J. Liu with ideas that date back to the work of Fernique. |
