This paper begins by deriving the uniform bounds for the regular Coulomb wave function $F_{\ell,\eta}$ and its derivative $F_{\ell,\eta}'$. We then examine detailed zero configurations of $F_{\ell,\eta}$ and $F_{\ell+1,\eta}$, extending…

In this article we consider the class $\mathcal{A}(p)$ which consists of functions that are meromorphic in the unit disc $\ID$ having a simple pole at $z=p\in (0,1)$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1 $. First we prove some sufficient…

The class $A_\alpha^p$ consists of those analytic functions $f$ in the unit disc such that \[\|f\|_{\alpha,p}^p := |f(0)|^p+\int_0^1 \left(\frac{d}{dr} M_p^p(r,f)\right) (1-r^2)^{\alpha-1} \,dr < \infty,\] where $M_p^p(r,f)$ is the radial…
