1. Introduction
Consider
to represent the family of analytic and univalent functions in the open unit disc
, with the following series representation:
The solution for the differential equation ([
1])
is
, which is the generalized Bessel function, and has the following representation:
for
, and
. Classical, modified, and spherical Bessel functions can all be studied in a unified way through series (
3), as follows:
- (i)
Acquiring
within (
3) gives the familiar Bessel function of the first kind of order
p defined by Watson [
2] (Baricz [
1]):
- (ii)
Acquiring
and
within (
3) gives the modified Bessel function of the first kind of order
p given as ([
1,
2])
- (iii)
Acquiring
and
within (
3) gives the spherical Bessel function of the first kind of order
p expressed as ([
1])
Now, we employ the function
, which is a normalization for
, with the following ([
3,
4]):
Thus,
takes the following series form:
Now, the convolution-type operator
is defined as follows:
where

Now, and with the help of the operator , in the following definition, we define a subclass of functions . The investigations within this paper are focused on studying the properties of functions belonging to this subclass.
Definition 1. For real , and , if it fulfills the subordination: Alternatively, in a similar way, Additionally, for , we write , where We recommend the papers [
1,
4,
5,
6,
7,
8] for additional results on the modification of the generalized Bessel function. These papers established a variety of functional inequalities, integral representations, extensions of some known trigonometric inequalities, starlikeness, convexity, and univalence. Using the normalized form of the first-kind ordinary Bessel function and the normalized form of the first-kind generalized Bessel functions, respectively, Baricz and Frasin [
7] and Deniz et al. [
4] were interested in the univalence of certain integral operators. Several sufficient circumstances for the convexity and strong convexity of the integral operators formed by the normalized expression of the ordinary Bessel function of the first kind were obtained by Frasin [
9]. Additionally, numerous authors have addressed the issue of some generalized integral operators’ geometric features (such as convexity, starlikeness, and univalence). In addition, we recommend [

16,
17,
18]. For more recent works about Bessel functions, we refer to [
19,
20,
21,
22,
23].
The primary objective of this work is to introduce a variety of subordination properties involving the linear operator
associated with the generalized Bessel functions defined by (
6). Also, we investigated some estimates and sufficient starlike conditions of certain subclass of univalent functions defined in ▿.
2. Preliminaries

At this stage, the proof can be completed, and the details are left out. □
6. Conclusions
The Bessel function is one of the most significant special functions. A generalized version of this function was utilized in this article. This extended Bessel function yields new results as well as direct implications for some modified versions of the ordinary Bessel function, of which there are three forms (modified, spherical, and ordinary). Based on this role of the generalized function, we drew upon previous studies and applied them to obtain the operator
on a class of analytic functions defined on the unit disk. This class also generalizes well-known classes of functions in the field of Geometric Function Theory of complex variables by employing the principle of differential subordination and the concept of convolution of functions. The operator
generalizes the other existing operator by specializing parameters
and
c. Additionally, we looked into some sufficient starlike requirements and assessments for a particular subset of univalent functions in ▿. By specializing the parameters in all theorems obtained here, we will be able to determine the consequences of
,
,
, and
as special cases of
. For further studies, we recommend investigations to be conducted on the Mittag–Leffler function [
34], Hurwitz–Lerch Zeta function [
35], Dini [
36] and Einstein [
37,
38] functions, etc.
