Common zero of complex quadratic forms ($n\ge 2^d$)

Any $d$ quadratic forms on ${\mathbb{C}}^n$ have a common nonzero zero when $n\ge 2^d$. Choose a totally isotropic subspace for the first form, of dimension at least $\lfloor n/2\rfloor$. Restrict the remaining forms to it and repeat by induction. After $d$ stages at least one dimension remains. This elementary sufficient bound does not assert that $2^d$ is the best possible threshold.
