If $\nu_{\text{irrepresentable}(S,s)} < 1/L$, then $\phi^2_{\text{compatible}}(L,S) \geq (1 - L \nu_{\text{irrepresentable}(S,s)})^2 \lambda_{\min}^2$. \end{lemma} Since ${\cal R}(3, S) = {\cal C}$, $\|\beta_S\|_1 \geq \|\beta_S\|_2$, and $\|\beta_S\|_1 \geq \frac{1}{3} \|\beta_{S^c}\|_1$ it is easy to see that $\|\beta_S\|_1 \geq \frac{1}{4} \|\beta\|_2$ and therefore that: $\gamma_n \geq \frac{n}{4s}\phi^2_{\text{compatible}}(3,S)$ Consequently, if $\epsilon > \frac{2}{3}$, then $\nu_{\text{irrepresentable}(S,s)} < 1/3$ and the conditions of Lemma~\ref{lemm:irrepresentability_proof} hold.
