Classes of Ma-Minda type analytic functions associated with a kidney-shaped domain

  • MSC : 05A30, 11B65, 30C45, 47B38

  • Ma-Minda-type analytic functions have been a central topic in geometric function theory due to their importance in studying properties such as univalence, convexity, and starlikeness. However, the class of Ma-Minda functions associated with kidney-shaped domains has not been systematically investigated before, leaving a clear research gap. In this paper, we introduced and studied the geometric properties of class $ {\mathcal{S}}^*_k $. Our approach combined rigorous geometric analysis with Python programming (version 3.13.2) and graphical illustrations, providing both theoretical depth and computational support. Several inclusion relations and radius problems for $ {\mathcal{S}}^*_k $ were established in comparison with other known classes. Furthermore, we examined various problems related to the initial coefficient bounds, with particular emphasis on their sharpness.
