-    by the monotonicity and submodularity  of $V$. Hence  $i\in S_G'$. As $OPT'_{-i^*}$,  is the optimal value of \eqref{relax} under relaxation $L$ when $i^*$ is excluded from $\mathcal{N}$, reducing the costs can only increase this value, so under $c'_i\leq c_i$ the greedy set is still allocated and $s_i(c_i',c_{-i}) =1$.

+    $OPT'_{-i^*}$,  is the optimal value of \eqref{eq:primal} under relaxation $L$ when $i^*$ is excluded from $\mathcal{N}$, reducing the costs can only increase this value, so under $c'_i\leq c_i$ the greedy set is still allocated and $s_i(c_i',c_{-i}) =1$.
     Suppose now that when $i$ reports $c_i$, $OPT'_{-i^*} < C V(i^*)$. Then $s_i(c_i,c_{-i})=1$ iff $i = i^*$. 
     Reporting $c_{i^*}'\leq c_{i^*}$ does not change $V(i^*)$ nor
     $OPT'_{-i^*} \leq C V(i^*)$; thus $s_{i^*}(c_{i^*}',c_{-i^*})=1$, so the mechanism is monotone.
