Non-singular boundary point
regular boundary point
An accessible boundary point (cf. Attainable boundary point) of the domain of definition
of a single-valued analytic function
of a complex variable
such that
has an analytic continuation to
along any path inside
to
. In other words, a non-singular boundary point is accessible, but not singular. See also Singular point of an analytic function.
Comments
Note that the same point in the boundary of may give rise to several different accessible boundary points, some of which may be singular, others regular. E.g., consider the domain
, and the function
, where
is the principal value of
. Then "above"
there are two accessible boundary points: one singular, corresponding to approach along
,
; one regular, corresponding to approach along
,
.
