Let . For each , apply the periodic primitives with zero mean construction of part (iii) to , writing and
The estimates are independent of : . With , the same repeated integration by parts gives, for every test function ,
This is precisely weak convergence of distributions, so . The extra integration by parts beyond the growth exponent is what ensures decay.
