Abstract
In this article, we are mainly interested in finding the sufficient conditions under which Lommel functions and hyper-Bessel functions are close-to-convex with respect to the certain starlike functions. Strongly starlikeness and convexity of Lommel functions and hyper-Bessel functions are also discussed. Some applications are also the part of our investigation.

If f and g are analytic functions, then the function f is said to be subordinate to written as if there exist a Schwarz function w with and such that Furthermore, if the function g is univalent in , then we have the following equivalent relation:
For two functions f of the form of Equation (1) and g of the form

Since the function is not in class the normalized hyper-Bessel function is defined by
It is observed that the function defined in Equation (9) does not belong to the class Here, we consider the following normalized form of the hyper-Bessel function for our own convenience.
To discuss the close-to-convexity of normalized hyper-Bessel functions with respect to the certain starlike functions, here we define modified form of the normalized hyper-Bessel functions
Special functions have great importance in pure and applied mathematics. The wide use of these functions has attracted many researchers to work on the different directions. Recently, many mathematicians study the geometric properties of special functions with different aspects. For details, we refer to [4,5,6,7,8,9]. Certain conditions for close-to-convexity of some special functions such as Bessel functions, q-Mittag-Leffler functions, Wright functions, and Dini functions have been determined by many mathematicians with different methods (for details, see [4,10,11,12,13]). We need the following Lemmas to prove our results.
