Remark 63. A boundary point may or may not be in S. No point can simultaneously be interior and a boundary point as the definitions of interior point and boundary point are exclusive.The set of all boundary points of S is called the boundary of S, and is denoted by ∂S.Limit point differs from boundary point in that every open disk about the point contains something from S other than the point itself (see Example 268).Every point of a set is either an interior point or a boundary point.
A Primer on Laplacians

for every k-form α $ \alpha $ and every (sufficiently smooth) submanifold U⊂M $ U\subset M $ of dimension (k+1) $ (k+1) $ with boundary ∂U $ \partial U $ . If one asserts this equality as the defining property of the differential d, then it immediately follows that d∘d=0 $ d\circ d =0 $ since the boundary of a boundary of a manifold is empty (∂(∂U)=∅ $ \partial (\partial U) = \emptyset $ ).
Functions of a Complex Variable

A point z1 is called a boundary point of the set D if every neighborhood of z1 contains both some points belonging to D as well as some points not belonging to it. The set of boundary points is referred to as the boundary of the set D. The set containing its boundary is called a closed set. The set composed of a domain D and all of the boundary points of D is called a closed domain and is denoted D¯. For example, the disk |z−z0|≤R and the ring r≤|z−z0|≤R are closed domains; but the ring r<|z−z0|≤R is not a closed domain (as the boundary points lying on the circle r=|z−z0| do not belong to the set), neither is it a domain (it contains boundary points on the circle |z−z0|=R, and thus is not open).
Place facets: a systematic literature review

Location is one of the facets mentioned in all publications. Locational information of a place is the answer to where-questions that are asked in a wide range of situations, from our everyday life to human-machine interactions. It is therefore no surprise that locational information is the primary part of different place models. Localization (Scheider & Janowicz, 2014), footprint (Goodchild, 2011), and geographic location (Gieryn, 2000) are terms related to location. Localization is closely associated with another facet of place, i.e., boundary (Vasardani et al., 2016; Vasardani & Winter, 2016; Winter & Freksa, 2012). Based on the Jordan curve theorem, a boundary partitions space into three segments, the boundary itself, an inside, and an outside (Hales, 2007). However, unlike mathematical geometries, places in the geographical world do not necessarily have well-defined, crisp boundaries (Montello et al., 2003; Winter & Freksa, 2012). Unlike administrative places which are defined by crisp boundaries, people have vague and subjective perceptions of boundaries for the socially constructed places such as downtown (Hollenstein & Purves, 2010; Montello et al., 2003; Smith & Varzi, 2000), for natural places such as a mountain (Jones, 1959), and in natural communication where boundaries are often irrelevant.

In this section we describe the classical formulation of the dynamic thermoviscoelastic thermistor problem with frictional contact. Let be an open bounded domain in (), with Lipschitz boundary. The boundary is composed of three sets , and , with mutually disjoint relatively open sets , and , such that . For we denote by and the usual normal and tangential components of v on the boundary , i.e. and where denotes the unit outward normal vector on . Similarly, for a regular tensor field , we define its normal and tangential components by and , respectively. Here and below, summation over repeated indices is implied, and we refer to the Appendix 1 for additional mathematical terms.
