Definition: Interior, Boundary, and Closures of a Region in the Complex Plane
Let $U\subseteq\mathbb C$ be a subset of the complex plane.
* A point $b\in U$ is said to be in the interior of $U$, if there is a disc $B(b,r)$ contained in $U.$
* A point $b$ is called a boundary point of $U,$ if every disc centered at $b$ contains both, the points of the interior of $U$ and outside the interior of $U.$
* The closure of $U$ is the set union of $U$ with its boundary points.
Note
- The above definitions are specific instances of the general definitions in topology, which can be found here.
- With this respect, the complex plane is a specific topological space together with absolute value as a distance measure.
