Abstract
In this study, by using the concepts of subordination, we define a new family of starlike functions of complex order connected with the cardioid domain. The main contribution of this article consists of the derivations of sharp inequality, considering the functions belonging to the family of starlike functions in . Particularly, sharp bounds of the first two Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients, sharp estimates of the Fekete–Szegö-type functionals, and coefficient inequalities are investigated for this newly defined family of starlike functions. Furthermore, for the inverse function and the function, we investigate the same types of problems. Several well-known corollaries are also highlighted to show the connections between prior research and the new findings.

1. Introduction and Preliminaries
Suppose represents the collection of all analytic functions in the open unit disc
which are normalized by
Thus, the form given in (1) can be used to express any function :
The class of functions from that are univalent in an open unit disc is denoted by .
Coefficients of functions, Taylor series representations, and their associated functional inequalities are of major interest in the theory of analytic and univalent functions. The Fekete–Szegö inequality is one of the most significant and useful functional inequalities. There are a number of results that have been proven regarding the maximization of the non-linear functional or other classes and subclasses of univalent functions, and these type of problems are called Fekete–Szegö problems (see [1]). If and it is of the form (1), then
and the result is sharp (see [1]). There is a long history of the Fekete–Szegö problem in literature and for complex number .
The function g is said to be subordinate to the function f, written symbolically as
if there exists a function w such that
where and . Furthermore, if the function f is univalent in , then it follows that and .
The area of function theory was established in 1851. This field first gained attention as a potential area for future research in 1916 when Bieberbach [2] investigated the coefficient conjecture. De Branges [3] proved this idea in 1985. Many of the top researchers of the day attempted to prove or disprove this Bieberbach hypothesis between 1916 and 1985. As a result, they found a large number of normalized univalent function subfamilies belonging to class that are associated with various image domains. The most fundamental and important subclasses of the set are represented by the families of starlike () and convex () functions, respectively.
The familiar class of starlike functions in , denoted by , consists of function and satisfies the following condition:
The class of convex functions in , denoted by , consists of function and satisfies the following condition
The above two classes can be written in terms of subordination, as follows:
and
Ma and Minda [4] gave the generalization of and as follows:
and
where is a real part function that is positive and is normalized by the rule
and maps onto a starlike region with respect to 1 and symmetric with respect to the real axis. For these classes of analytic functions, Ma and Minda [4] discussed a number of particular results, including distortion, growth, and covering theorems. As a special case of class of normalized analytic functions, various subfamilies of class have been examined recently. Many subfamilies of class of normalised analytic functions have been examined recently as a particular instance of the class ; for example, Janowski starlike class was investigated in [5], class was studied in [6] by Sokól and Stankiewicz, class was investigated by Cho et al. [7], class was studied in [8], and was studied in [9]. For a more recent study about sharp estimates, see the following articles [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18].
Ravichandran et al. [19] gave an extension of the above two classes in the following way:
and
These types of functions are referred to be Ma–Minda starlike and convex functions of order respectively.
The image of under every contains a disk of radius , and thus every has an inverse defined as:
and
The series of is given as:
where
and
The logarithmic coefficients of a function are defined by
On the basis of the geometrical interpretation of their image domains, numerous subclasses of analytic functions have been defined and investigated using the concepts of subordination. Some interesting geometrical classes have been defined when the domain is the right half of a plane [20], a circular disc [21], an oval or petal-type domain [22], a conic domain [23,24], a leaf-like domain [25], a generalized conic domain [26], and, most importantly, a shell-like curve [27,28,29,30].
The function
is essential for the shell-like shape, where
The image of the unit circle under the function p gives the conchoid of Maclaurin, that is,
The function given in (5) has the following series representation:
where
where produces a Fibonacci series of coefficient constants that are more closely related to the Fibonacci numbers.
Taking inspiration from the idea of circular disc and shell-like curves, Malik et al. [31] defined new domain for analytic functions named the cardioid domain. A new class of analytic functions is defined, associated with the cardioid domain (for more detail, see [31]).
Definition 1
([31]). Assume that represents the class of functions p defined by the subordination relation
where is defined by
with and .
The explanation of the function in geometric terms might be helpful in understanding the class . If we denote
and
then the image of the unit circle is a cardioid-like curve defined by
where
Moreover, we observe that
According to (7), the cusp of the cardioid-like curve is provided by
The image of each inner circle is a nested cardioid-like curve if the open unit disc is considered a collection of concentric circles with the origin at the center. As a result, the open unit disc is mapped onto a cardioid region by the function . This means that is a cardioid domain. See [31] for a graphical study of the geometry of the cardioid domain.
The recent paper [31] inspired us to adopt this strategy to define a new subclass of generalized subordinate functions of complex order associated with the cardioid domain.

Motivated by the recent studies of starlike functions associated with the cardioid domain [31,32], we define a class of generalized subordinate functions of complex order connected with cardioid domains. We investigate sharp coefficient estimates of Taylor series and Fekete-Szegö problems for certain generalized subordinate functions of complex order associated with the cardioid domain. Additionally, similar problems are discovered for the inverse function and for log.

4. Conclusions
In the present article, three new subclasses of analytic functions are defined in relation to the concepts of subordination and cardioid domain. We have investigated a number of interesting problems for functions that belong to these classes of analytic functions, including bounds for the first two Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients, estimates for the Fekete–Szegö-type functional, and coefficient inequalities. It has been demonstrated that all bounds that we have examined in this article is sharp. The same type of sharp results were also investigated for the inverse and functions. Some known consequences of our main results are also highlighted in our study.
Based on our current investigation, future research might take the well-known quantum or basic (or q-) calculus as in, for example, the relevant recent publications [36,37,38,39,40]. We hope that our work will provide a foundation for further studies investigating several other classes of analytic functions associated with the cardioid domain, and for these classes, a number of geometrical properties such as coefficient estimates, sufficiency criteria, radii of starlikeness, convexity, and close to convexity, extreme points, and distortion bounds can be investigated.
