There are many results for sufficient conditions of functions f(z) which are analytic in the open unit disc U to be starlike and convex in U. The object of the present paper is to derive some interesting sufficient conditions for f(z) to be…

We introduce three classes of analytic functions with fixed second coefficient which are defined using the class $\mathcal{P}$ of analytic functions with positive real part. The objective is to determine radii such that the three classes…

The known Ozaki's condition says that $\mathfrak{Re}\left\{f^{(p)}(z)\right\}>0$ for $|z|<1$ implies that $f(z)=z^p+a_{p+1}z^{p+1}+\cdots$ is at most $p$-valent in $\mathbb D$. In this paper prove an extension of Ozaki's condition. Also, we…

We introduce and study a class of starlike functions defined by \begin{equation*} \mathscr{S}^*_\wp:=\left\{f\in\mathcal{A}: \frac{zf'(z)}{f(z)}\prec 1+ze^z=:\wp(z)\right\}, \end{equation*} where $\wp$ maps the unit disk onto a cardioid…

Let $\ID$ denote the open unit disk and $f:\,\ID\TO\BAR\IC$ be meromorphic and univalent in $\ID$ with the simple pole at $p\in (0,1)$ and satisfying the standard normalization $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$. Also, let $f$ have the expansion…

For a normalised analytic function f defined on the open unit disk in the complex plane, we determine several sufficient conditions for starlikeness in terms of the quotients Q_{ST}:=zf'(z)/f(z), Q_{CV}:=1+zf"(z)/f'(z) and the Schwarzian…

Let $p$ be an analytic function defined on the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ with $p(0)=1$ and $0< \alpha \leq 1$. The conditions on complex valued functions $C$, $D$ and $E$ are obtained for $p$ to be subordinate to $((1+z)/(1-z))^{\alpha}$…

Given a domain $\Omega$ in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ and a univalent function $q$ defined in an open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with nice boundary behaviour, Miller and Mocanu studied the class of admissible functions $\Psi(\Omega,q)$ so…

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…

For functions $f(z)=z^p+a_{n+1}z^{p+1}+...$ defined on the open unit disk, the condition $\Re (f'(z)/z^{p-1})>0$ is sufficient for close-to-convexity of $f$. By making use of this result, several sufficient conditions for close-to-convexity…

In this paper, we introduce and explore a new class of starlike functions denoted by $\mathcal{S}^*_{\mathfrak{B}}$, defined as follows: $$\mathcal{S}^*_{\mathfrak{B}}=\{f\in \mathcal{A}:zf'(z)/f(z)\prec…

For an analytic function f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_n z^n satisfying the inequality \sum_{n=2}^\infty n(n-1)|a_n|\leq \beta, sharp bound on $\beta$ is determined so that $f$ is either starlike or convex of order $\alpha$. Several other…
