Average-Radius List-Decodability of Random Linear Codes

We prove that for every prime power $q$ and every $p \in (0, 1-1/q)$, a random $\mathbb{F}_q$-linear code of rate $1 - h_q(p) - \epsilon$ is $(p, C_{p,q}/\epsilon)$-average-radius list-decodable with probability at least $1 - q^{-\Omega(n)}$, i.e., for every center $y \in \mathbb{F}_q^n$, the $C_{p,q}/\epsilon$ codewor...
