Abstract
This paper presents a new general subfamily of the family that contains holomorphic normalized m-fold symmetric bi-univalent functions in the open unit disk associated with the Ruscheweyh derivative operator. For functions belonging to the family introduced here, we find estimates of the Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients and , and the consequences of the results are discussed. The current findings both extend and enhance certain recent studies in this field, and in specific scenarios, they also establish several connections with known results.

1. Introduction
Let be an open unit disk in the complex plane and be a collection of functions
which are holomorphic in together with a normalization given by
The Hadamard product of and is defined by
where the function is also holomorphic in .
The Ruscheweyh derivative operator (see [1]) of is defined as
Denote the sub-collection of by , consisting of univalent functions in , and consider the sub-collection of functions
that are holomorphic in and the real part, , is positive.
According to the Koebe 1/4 Theorem (see [2]), the image of under any univalent function consists of a disk of radius . As a consequence, every function has an inverse such that
and
The inverse of the function has a series expansion in some disk about the origin of the following form:
A univalent function in the neighborhood of the origin and its inverse satisfy the following condition:
or, equivalently,
Using (1) and (3) in (4), we get
If a function and its inverse are both univalent on , then f is called a bi-univalent function. Denote the family of all bi-univalent functions in by .
Lewin [3] conducted a study on the family of bi-univalent functions and discovered that 1.51 for the functions belonging to the family . Later, Brannan and Clunie [4] proposed the conjecture that . Subsequently, Netanyahu [5] demonstrated that for . To explore various fascinating examples of , refer to the seminal work on this area by Srivastava et al. [6], which has revitalized the study of functions in recent years.
Srivastava et al. [6] showed that the family is nonempty by providing some explicit examples, including the following function:
whose inverses are
respectively. It worth noting that the Koebe function is not a member of . Hence, is a proper subfamily of . In fact, this pioneering work of Srivastava et al. [6] actually revived the study of analytic and biunivalent functions in recent years. It was followed by a remarkably huge flood of sequels on the subject.
Let . Brannan and Taha [7] introduced specific subfamilies of , analogous to the well-known subfamilies, starlike functions , and convex functions of order . A function is in the family of bi-starlike functions of order if both f and its inverse are starlike functions of order , or is in the family of bi-convex functions of order if both f and its inverse are convex functions of order . Moreover, for , the function is classified as a strongly bi-starlike function, (see [7,8]), if it satisfies:
where is defined by (5).
Recently, studying the family and deriving non-sharp bounds on and , where and are the initial Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients, have become an active area of research. In particular, the pioneering work by Srivastava et al. [6] has crucially advanced the study of certain subfamilies within and identified constraints on and . A substantial number of subsequent works have been published in the literature, building upon the groundbreaking research by Srivastava et al. [6] and focusing on coefficient problems for different subfamilies of (see, for example, [9,10] and the above-cited works). However, the general coefficient estimate bounds on for functions f in the family remain an unsolved problem.
For , the function
is univalent and maps into an m-fold symmetric region. A function is called m-fold symmetric (see [11]) if it is of the form:
The family of all m-fold symmetric functions is denoted by . For a function defined by (7), analogous to the Ruscheweyh derivative operator, the m-fold Ruscheweyh derivative is defined as follows (see [12]):
Let denote the family of m-fold symmetric univalent functions in normalized by (7). Then, the functions are one-fold symmetric. As stated by Koepf [11], the m-fold symmetric p in has the form
Recently, Srivastava et al. [13] defined the family of m-fold symmetric bi-univalent functions analogous to the family , and the inverse of functions f given by (7) is specified as follows:
For , the function in (9) coincides with (5) of the family . Some examples of m-fold symmetric bi-univalent functions are given below:
with inverses of
respectively.
Recent research has been dedicated to analyzing the functions in the family and obtaining non-sharp bounds on and , where and are the initial Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients. In reality, Srivastava et al. [13] have greatly advanced the research on many subfamilies of the family and obtained restrictions on and in recent years. Later on, some scholars followed them (see, for example, [14,15] and the above-cited works).
Motivated by the aforementioned works, the primary goal of this study is to propose a formula to determine the coefficients of the functions for the family utilizing the residue of calculus. As an example, we construct estimates of the coefficients and for functions belonging to a generic subfamily of in , and additional links to previously known results are made. Furthermore, by sufficiently specializing the parameters, some consequences of this family are demonstrated.
2. The Family and Its Associated Coefficient Estimates
In this section, the following general family is introduced and investigated.
Definition 1.
A function given by (7) belongs to the family
if the following conditions are satisfied:
and
where and v, holomorphic in , are defined by the expansion (8), and the function is defined by (9).
Many choices of the functions u and v can be used to create attractive subfamilies of the functions that are holomorphic in the family .
Example 1.
If we let

and
where the function is defined by (9).
This means that
and the family is not empty.
Example 2.
If we set

and
where the function is defined by (9).
This means that
It can be seen that, for symmetric one-fold bi-univalent functions, by specializing and ℓ, we get several known subfamilies of recently investigated by various authors. Let us present some examples.
Example 3.
Let and . Then, the family reduces to the family inspected by Bulut [16], which is defined by the requirement that ,

Example 5.

Now, we are able to express bounds for and for the subfamily of the family .
Theorem 1.
Let be given by (7). Then,
and
where
and
Proof.
It is implied by (10) and (11) that
and
where and satisfy the conditions of (10) and have the series representations
and
Substituting the expansions (22) and (23) into (20) and (21), respectively, yields
and
In light of (24) and (26), we conclude that
and
where is given by (15).
If the equalities (25) and (27) are added, we obtain the relation
where and are given by (16), (17) and (18), respectively.
Therefore, from (29) and (30), we have
and
respectively. Therefore, taking the absolute value of (31) and (32), and using (28), we deduce that
and
respectively. Thus, we have the desired result as asserted in (13).
Then, to obtain , subtract (27) from (25),
where is given by (19).
Now, putting the value of from (29) into (35), it follows that
Therefore, taking the absolute value of (36) and using the relation given by (28), we deduce that
By putting the value of from (30) into (35), we obtain
Therefore, taking the absolute value of (38), we conclude the following bound
Finally, from (37) and (39), we get the relevant estimate as asserted in (14). This completes the proof. □

The coefficient bounds and for functions in this family were derived, showing how the results are generalized from some recent works. Furthermore, by sufficiently specializing the parameters, some consequences of this family were mentioned.
