Abstract
In this article, we use the q-derivative operator and the principle of subordination to define a new subclass of analytic functions related to the q-Ruscheweyh operator. Sufficient conditions, sharp bounds for the initial coefficients, a Fekete–Szegö functional and a Toeplitz determinant are investigated for this new class of functions. Additionally, we also present several established consequences derived from our primary findings.

1. Introduction
Let represent the set of all complex valued mappings of the form
which are analytic in the open unit disc . A function is classified as univalent in if it never repeats the same value. The subclass of containing univalent functions is denoted as .
We represent by the set comprising all analytic functions of the form
such that in . A function belonging to the class is referred to as a starlike function (represented as ) and a convex function (represented as ) if it meets the following inequality conditions:
and
The sets and of starlike and convex functions of order respectively, are defined as follows:
and
For , it can be seen that
The families and of t-uniformly convex functions and t-uniformly starlike functions are defined by Kanas and Wisniowska [1,2] as follows:
and
These two classes are generalizations of the classes of convex univalent functions and uniformly starlike functions, defined by Goodman [3]. In a similar way, Wang et al. [4] studied the subfamilies and of analytic functions defined by the following inequalities, respectively:
and

The investigation of integral and differential operators has been a valuable area of research since the inception of the theory of analytic functions. The introduction of the first integral operator can be attributed to Alexander [5] in 1915. These operators have been examined from various perspectives, including the incorporation of quantum calculus. The study of q-calculus has recently gained attention due to its wide applications in applied sciences. Jackson [6,7] was the pioneer in defining q-analogues of derivatives using q-calculus. Using q-derivatives, Ismail et al. ([8]) defined and investigated q-starlike functions, prompting the further exploration of q-calculus within the domain of geometric functions theory (GFT). Subsequently, several q-extensions of integral and differential operators have been defined. Kanas and Răducanu [9] defined the q-Ruscheweyh differential operator, and Noor et al. in [10] studied the q-Bernardi integral operator. Furthermore, as a q-analogue of the operator given in [11], Govindaraj and Sivasubramanian [12] defined the q-Salagean operator. The studies by authors [13,14,15] also highlight significant contributions to the q-generalizations of certain subclasses of analytic functions. Recently, Srivastava [16] published a comprehensive review article that serves as a valuable resource for researchers and scholars involved in GFT and q-calculus.
Now, let us revisit some definitions and details regarding q-calculus, which will enhance our understanding of this new article.

For specific values of λ and , we have the following special cases:
- If and , then , which is the familiar subclass of starlike functions.

This functional is further generalized as
where is any complex or real number.
The significance of the Hankel determinant is evident in the field of singularity theory [20], and it proves beneficial in the examination of power series with integer coefficients (see [21,22,23]). Several researchers have established upper bounds for across various values of m and n, for numerous subclasses of analytic functions (see, for example, [24,25,26,27,28]).
For a function represented by Equation (1), the symmetric Toeplitz determinant is defined as
where and In particular,
In recent times, a number of researchers have focused on exploring the bounds of the Toeplitz determinant for various families of analytic functions (see, for example, [29,30,31,32]). In the investigation of Toeplitz determinants, the research conducted in [33,34] incorporates elements of quantum calculus, while [35] explores a set of analytic functions introduced through the utilization of the Borel distribution.
Our main results rely on the utilization of the following Lemmas for their proof.

5. Conclusions
In this article, we have defined a new subclass of analytic functions associated with the q-Ruscheweyh operator. After finding sufficient conditions for the analytic functions belonging to this class, we establish sharp bounds for the initial coefficients, second- and third-order Toeplitz determinants and the Fekete–Szegö functional for the functions belonging to the newly defined class. We also demonstrate several established corollaries of our primary findings to highlight the interrelation between existing and novel research.
