Theorem
Consider the subset $S$ of the complex plane defined as:
- $S := \set {\dfrac i n : n \in \Z_{>0} }$
That is:
- $S := \set {i, \dfrac i 2, \dfrac i 3, \dfrac i 4, \ldots}$
where $i$ is the imaginary unit.
No point of $S$ is an interior point.
Proof
From Sequence of Imaginary Reciprocals: Boundary Points, every $z \in S$ is a boundary point of $S$.
Thus no $z \in S$ is an interior point.
