Is this true?

V\subset\mathbb{R}^n\;\textrm{open}\quad\implies\quad m_n(\partial V)=0

The boundary of an open set is the set of points that lie on the edge of the open set. It is the boundary between the open set and its complement.
The boundary of an open set is always of zero measure because it does not contain any interior points. This means that the boundary consists entirely of points that are on the edge, but not contained within the open set.
Yes, the boundary of an open set is often used in mathematical analysis and topology to define and study various mathematical objects, such as functions and geometric shapes.
Yes, in certain cases the boundary of an open set can be empty. This occurs when the open set is also a closed set, meaning that it contains all of its boundary points.
The boundary of an open set is closely related to the concept of a limit point. In fact, all points on the boundary of an open set are also limit points, meaning that they are approached by points within the open set. However, not all limit points are necessarily on the boundary of an open set.
