A starlike univalent function $f$ is characterized by the function $zf'(z)/f(z)$; several subclasses of these functions were studied in the past by restricting the function $zf'(z)/f(z)$ to take values in a region $\Omega$ on the right-half…

It is well-known that the condition ${\operatorname{Re}} \left[1+\frac{zf''(z)}{f'(z)}\right]>0$, $z\in{\mathbb D}$, implies that $f$ is starlike function (i.e. convexity implies starlikeness). If the previous condition is not satisfied for…

In 1984, Clunie and Sheil-Small proved that a sense-preserving harmonic function whose analytic part is convex, is univalent and close-to-convex. In this paper, certain cases are discussed under which the conclusion of this result can be…
