An improved bound on the list error probability and list distance properties

Summary, in English

A new upper bound on the list error probability is presented. This bound is derived by combining the techniques for obtaining the tangential union bound with an improved bound on the error probability with respect to a given list. Connections between the list distance and the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix of the code are studied
