Subdifferential of the L1 norm ($\partial \Vert \beta {\Vert }_1$)

The subdifferential of the L1 norm consists of vectors $z$ with $z_j=\mathrm{sgn}({\beta }_j)$ when ${\beta }_j\ne 0$ and $z_j\in [-1,1]$ when ${\beta }_j=0$. These coordinate conditions give the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions for Lasso and Square-root Lasso.
