Epsilon is used with reference to sphericity. It is simply a value by which the degrees of freedom for the test of F ratio if multiplied.
When epsilon is equal to 1 sphericity is met (hence no adjustment). When it is less than 1 the assumption the the covariances and variances are violated. Greenhouse Geisser epsilon is the most common.
