SUMMARY
The discussion confirms that a function g belonging to C²(∂U) does not automatically imply that g is in L²(∂U) when the boundary ∂U is not compact. An example provided involves a modification of the function f(x) = sin(x)/x. However, if ∂U is compact, the conclusion shifts to likely being true, as the bounded nature of U ensures continuity on the closure of U, making the result valid.
