The martingale is bounded in , so the increment-square series from part (a)(ii) is finite. The identity just obtained implies , hence . By almost sure convergence and the dominated convergence theorem,
The integrand is nonnegative because . It must vanish almost surely, giving .
The martingale has constant expectation . Its convergence implies convergence by Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, and hence . Therefore
The limiting law is the Bernoulli distribution with parameter .
