The sobolev embedding theorem in three dimensions and the periodic elliptic estimate for the Stokes operator giveThe last step uses the absence of the zero Fourier mode: on mean-zero periodic fields, the Poincare inequality makes the homogeneous $H^2$ norm controlled by $\Vert \Delta v{\Vert }_2=|Av|$.

Take the $L^2$ inner product of the temperature equation with ${\theta }_m$. The spectral projection disappears against ${\theta }_m\in {\tilde{H}}_m$, and part (a)(iii) cancels transport. ThusThe periodic Poincare inequality, part (i), and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality implyThe Gronwall inequality therefore gives, for $0\le t\le T$,This defines a bound $K_0(T)$ independent of $m$, and part (i) then givesIntegrating the energy identity and using the same bound on its right-hand side gives

It remains to estimate the time derivative. For $\phi \in H_{\mathrm{per}}^1$, the Fourier projection ${\Pi }_m$ is a contraction in $H^1$, and the skew identity from part (a) givesThe sobolev embedding theorem and the periodic elliptic estimate for the Stokes operator bound $\Vert u_m{\Vert }_{\infty }$ by $C|A{u}_m|$. Moreover,The already obtained bounds therefore implywith $K_0^{\prime }(T)$ independent of $m$.
