Let $${\mathcal {F}}$$ denote the class of all functions univalent in the unit disk $$\Delta \equiv \{\zeta \in {\mathbb {C}}\,:\,\left| \zeta \right| <1\}$$ and convex in the direction of the real axis. The paper deals with the subclass $${\mathcal {F}}^{(n)}$$ of these functions $$f$$ which satisfy the property $$f(\varepsilon z)=\varepsilon f(z)$$ for all $$z\in \Delta $$ , where $$\varepsilon =e^{2\pi i/n}$$ . The functions of this subclass are called $$n$$ -fold symmetric. For $${\mathcal {F}}^{(n)}$$ , where $$n$$ is odd positive integer, the following sets, $$\bigcap _{f\in {\mathcal {F}}^{(n)}} f(\Delta )$$ -the Koebe set and $$\bigcup _{f\in {\mathcal {F}}^{(n)}} f(\Delta )$$ -the covering set, are discussed. As corollaries, we derive the Koebe and the covering constants for $${\mathcal {F}}^{(n)}$$ . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are many articles in the literature dealing with the first-order and the second-order differential subordination and differential superordination problems for analytic functions in the unit disk, but there are only a few articles dealing with the third-order differential subordination problems. The concept of third-order differential subordination in the unit disk was introduced by Antonino and Miller, and studied recently by Tang and Deniz. Let $$\Omega $$ be a set in the complex plane $$\mathbb {C}$$ , let $$\mathfrak {p}(z)$$ be analytic in the unit disk $$\mathbb {U}=\{z:z\in \mathbb {C}\quad \text {and} \quad |z|<1\}$$ , and let $$\psi : \mathbb {C}^4\times \mathbb {U}\rightarrow \mathbb {C}$$ . In this paper, we investigate the problem of determining properties of functions $$\mathfrak {p}(z)$$ that satisfy the following third-order differential superordination: As applications, we derive some third-order differential superordination results for analytic functions in $$\mathbb {U}$$ , which are associated with a family of generalized Bessel functions. The results are obtained by considering suitable classes of admissible functions. New third-order differential sandwich-type results are also obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
