$begingroup$
I am reviewing Stein's complex analysis , and there's one theorem I listed follows:
Suppose $ f$ is a holomorphic function on a region $Omega$ that vanishes on a sequence of distinct points with a limit point in $Omega$ , then $f$ is identically $0$ . (Here region means both open and connect)
My question is : If we do not assume the limit point is in $Omega$ , the limit point might in the boundary of $Omega$ , can we get the similar conclusion ? Since the orginal proof using the power series of the limit point $z_0$ , I have no idea how to deal with this .

No, if the limit point is outside the domain then we cannot conclude that the function is identically zero.
To be specific, the Blaschke product gives a very specific construction of functions with prescribed zeros within the unit disk (potentially infinitely many!) which are not identically zero. The zeros do need to satisfy some growth conditions, though - they have to be moving towards the boundary of the disk quickly enough.

No, take $f(z)=sin(1/z)$ on the punctured plane. Then $f=0$ on $z_k=frac 1{kpi}$ and $z_kto 0$ but $f$ is not identically 0.

No, take $f(z)=sin(1/z)$ on the punctured plane. Then $f=0$ on $z_k=frac 1{kpi}$ and $z_kto 0$ but $f$ is not identically 0.
