Local density of Caputo-stationary functions in the space of smooth functions

We consider the Caputo fractional derivative and say that a function is Caputo-stationary if its Caputo derivative is zero. We then prove that any Ck( [ 0,1 ]) function can be approximated in [0,1] by a function that is Caputo-stationary in [0,1], with initial point a< 0. Otherwise said, Caputo-stationary functions are dense in Ckloc(R).
