Embed the part injectively into the rich set in a graph . List the vertices of as . When embedding , the images of its at most neighbours in have at least common neighbours in : extend that image set to an -subset of if necessary, noting that enlarging a set can only shrink its common neighbourhood. At most vertices have already been used, so one common neighbour remains available for . Choosing it embeds every edge incident with and keeps the map injective. Continuing greedily embeds in . This is the rich-set embedding lemma.
