Abstract :
We give a simple analysis of the PCP (probabilistically Checkable Proof) with low amortized query complexity of Samorodnitsky and Trevisan (2000). The analysis also applied to the linearity testing over finite fields, giving a better estimate of the acceptance probability in terms of the distance of the tested function to the closest linear function
