In the article the authors consider the class ${\mathcal H}_0$ of sense-preserving harmonic functions $f=h+\overline{g}$ defined in the unit disk $|z|<1$ and normalized so that $h(0)=0=h'(0)-1$ and $g(0)=0=g'(0)$, where $h$ and $g$ are…

Sufficient conditions on $A$, $B$, $p$, $b$ and $c$ are determined that will ensure the generalized Bessel functions ${u}_{p,b,c}$ satisfies the subordination ${u}_{p,b,c}(z) \prec (1+Az)/ (1+Bz)$. In particular this gives conditions for…

For $0\leq\alpha\leq 1,$ let $H_{\alpha}(x,y)$ be the convex weighted harmonic mean of $x$ and $y.$ We establish differential subordination implications of the form \begin{equation*} H_{\alpha}(p(z),p(z)\Theta(z)+zp'(z)\Phi(z))\prec…

For univalent and normalized functions $f$ the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n(f)$ are determined by the formula $\log(f(z)/z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}2\gamma_n(f)z^n$. In the paper \cite{Pon} the authors posed the conjecture that a locally…

Let $\alpha>0$ be a constant, let $\ell\ge0$ be an integer, and let $\Gamma(z)$ denote the classical Euler gamma function. With the help of the integral representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(z)$, by virtue of a monotonicity…

We analyze matrix convex functions of a fixed order defined on a real interval by differential methods as opposed to the characterization in terms of divided differences given by Kraus. We obtain for each order conditions for matrix…

The radii of starlikeness and convexity associated with lemniscate of Bernoulli and the Janowski function, $(1+Az)/(1+Bz)$ for $-1\leq B<A\leq 1$, have been determined for normalizations of $q$-Bessel function, Bessel function of first kind…

In this paper, strongly $(\alpha,T)$-convex functions, i.e., functions $f:D\to \R$ satisfying the functional inequality $$ f(tx+(1-t)y)\leq tf(x)+(1-t)f(y)-t\alpha\big((1-t)(x-y)\big)-(1-t)\alpha\big(t(y-x)\big)$$ for $x,y\in D$ and $t\in…

A real valued function $f$ defined on a convex $K$ is anemconvex function iff it satisfies $$ f((x+y)/2) \le (f(x)+f(y))/2 + 1. $$ A thorough study of approximately convex functions is made. The principal results are a sharp universal upper…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of functions analytic and univalent (i.e. one-to-one) in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:\, |z|<1\}$ normalized by $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$. The logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ of $f\in\mathcal{S}$…

According to a 2002 theorem by Cardaliaguet and Tahraoui, an isotropic, compact and connected subset of the group $\operatorname{GL}^+(2)$ of invertible $2\times2-\,$matrices is rank-one convex if and only if it is polyconvex. In a 2005…

Let $K$ be a compact set with connected complement on the half-plane Re$(s)>0$, and let $f$ be a continuous function on $K$ which is analytic in its interior. We prove that for any parameter $0<\alpha<1, \alpha \neq \frac 1 2$ then $f(s)$…

Let $M(\alpha)$ denote the (logarithmic) Mahler measure of the algebraic number $\alpha$. Dubickas and Smyth, and later Fili and the author, examined metric versions of $M$. The author generalized these constructions in order to associate,…

It is shown that, if nu >= 1/2 then the generalized Marcum Q function Q_nu(a, b) is log-concave in 0<=b <infty. This proves a conjecture of Sun, Baricz and Zhou (2010). We also point out relevant results in the statistics literature.

In this note, we investigate the supremum and the infimum of the functional $|a_{n+1}|-|a_{n}|$ for functions, convex and analytic on the unit disk, of the form $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\dots.$ We also consider the related problem to maximize…
