Recently in the paper [Mediterr. J. Math. 2016, 13, 1535–1553], the authors introduced and studied a new operator which was defined as a convolution of the three popular linear operators, namely the Sǎlǎgean operator, the Ruscheweyh operator and a fractional derivative operator. In the present paper, we consider an operator which is a convolution operator of only two linear operators (with lesser restricted parameters) that yield various well-known operators, defined by a symmetric way, including the one studied in the above-mentioned paper. Several results on the subordination of analytic functions to this operator (defined below) are investigated. Some of the results presented are shown to involve the familiar Appell function and Hurwitz–Lerch Zeta function. Special cases and interesting consequences being in symmetry of our main results are also mentioned. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let ST L (s) and CV L (s) denote the family of analytic and normalized functions f in the unit disk D : = z : | z | < 1 , such that the quantity z f ′ (z) / f (z) or 1 + z f ″ (z) / f ′ (z) respectively are lying in the region bounded by the limaçon (u − 1) 2 + v 2 − s 4 2 = 4 s 2 u − 1 + s 2 2 + v 2 , where 0 < s ≤ 1 / 2 . The limaçon of Pascal is a curve that possesses properties which qualify it for the several applications in mathematics, statistics (hypothesis testing problem) but also in mechanics (fluid processing applications, known limaçon technology is employed to extract electrical power from low-grade heat, etc.). In this paper we present some results concerning the behavior of f on the classes ST L (s) or CV L (s) . Some appropriate examples are given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
