Sep 30, 2022 at 6:34 comment added Steve The last two integrals simply converge to zero. I think that there is a lot of slack in the statement of the Lemma by not specifying $c_1$. For the term $2^{-1/\beta}$, I think any other constant $(1+\delta)$ instead of 2 would work as well where for arbitrarily small $c_1$, the $\delta$ also can be chosen smaller. The paper seems to side-step this precise weighing and simply takes $\delta=1$.
Sep 29, 2022 at 19:44 comment added n3rl This was very helpful, thanks! I have one more question; in the last step, how do we know that the two integrals are small enough that the entire expression is $\geq 1/\{sqrt{2}}$?
