For , define and . Each is measurable at time , so the summands in the given difference formula are orthogonal martingale transforms. Therefore
Let
Path continuity on the compact interval gives almost surely, and . Since , . Thus, by the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and part (b),
The last step is the dominated convergence theorem. The bound is uniform in , and the other ordering follows by symmetry. Hence the terminal martingale transforms are Cauchy in .
