In this paper, we consider the class of strongly bi-close-to-convex functions of order $\alpha$ and bi-close-to-convex functions of order $\beta$. We obtain an upper bound estimate for the second Hankel determinant for functions belonging…
We define the second discriminant $D_2$ of a univariate polynomial $f$ of degree greater than $2$ as the product of the linear forms $2\,r_k-r_i-r_j$ for all triples of roots $r_i, r_k, r_j$ of $f$ with $i<j$ and $j\neq k, k\neq i$. $D_2$…

We review second-order homogeneous linear differential equations with coefficient functions whose germs lie in a Hardy field (and hence are strongly non-oscillating). We prove a conjecture of Boshernitzan (1982): the oscillating solutions…
