Bounds for Tail Probabilities of the Sample Variance

<p/> <p>We provide bounds for tail probabilities of the sample variance. The bounds are expressed in terms of Hoeffding functions and are the sharpest known. They are designed having in mind applications in auditing as well as in processing data related to environment.</p>
