The authors study the local and global topological classification of smooth functions defined on a compact surface \(M\) having isolated critical points belonging to the boundary \(\partial M\) being critical with respect to \(\partial M\), too. Some detailed discussion is provided and several examples studied. The optimality (from the viewpoint of the number of critical points) is thoroughly discussed.
