Eb Half Diminished, written Ebm7b5, is built from Eb, Gb, Bbb and Db: the root, minor 3rd, flat 5th and minor 7th.
Its 3rd and 7th, Gb and Db, are its guide tones: they say what kind of chord it is, so voicings are built around them and the root is often left to the bass.
In the progressions here, Ebm7b5 is the iiø7 of the Minor ii-V Progression in Db and the viø7 of the Minor i-vi-ii-V Progression in Gb.
