Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Geometric function theory is an active research field of mathematics dealing with one and higher-dimensional complex analysis—in particular, with numerous applications in both mathematical sciences and engineering fields (for instance, the theory of harmonic mappings, analysis of PDEs, quasiconformal and quasiregular mappings, special functions, and fluid flow problems). Geometric function theory and symmetry are closely related; for instance, Möbius transformation theory and hyperbolic geometry both use symmetric principles. Additionally, function theory has extensively explored starlike functions with regard to symmetric points. The geometry of mappings and domains can be referred to as geometric function theory.

The main goal of publishing this Special Issue is to promote global cooperation, particularly in symmetry applications in the field of geometric function theory. A wide spectrum of function theorists and geometers from around the world are invited to contribute in order to accomplish this goal. The majority of the Special Issue will focus on the following areas of geometric function theory that are still relevant today: univalent harmonic mappings, hyperbolic-type geometries, function spaces, quasiconformal and quasiregular mappings, and function theory, all of which play a key role in obtaining applications.

The study of geometric analysis, function spaces, and metric measure spaces has attracted an increasing amount of attention in recent years. In physics, mechanics, and other application domains, harmonic mappings and analysis on PDEs have been developed, and they serve as a breakthrough in identifying new issues. Studying the general characteristics of geometric function theory is, thus, very important for science. One of the most significant applications of geometric function theory is found in neuroscience, among other fields of study, through conformal brain mappings.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to present a number of papers that concentrate on symmetry and its uses in geometric function theory. It also hopes to act as a spark for fresh ideas and new cooperative endeavours devoted to exploring the amazing insights into numerous branches of science and engineering.

The dynamical systems of trigonometric functions are explored, with a focus on sz=sin(z) and the fractal image created by iterating the Newton map, Fs(z), of s(z). The basins of attraction created from iterating Fs(z) are analyzed, and some bounds are determined for the primary basins of attraction. We further prove x and y-axis symmetry of the Newton map as well as some interesting results on periodic points on the real axis. Full article

In this paper, we introduce and study the class of analytic functions in the unit disc, which are derived from Robertson’s analytic formula for starlike functions with respect to a boundary point combined with a subordination involving lemniscate of Bernoulli and crescent shaped domains. Using their symmetry property, the basic geometrical and analytical properties of the introduced classes were proved. Early coefficients and the Fekete–Szegö functional were estimated. Results for both classes were also obtained by applying the theory of differential subordinations. Full article

For a given mapping f in the framework of different spaces, the fixed-point equations of the form fx=x can model several problems in different areas, such as differential equations, optimization, and computer science. In this work, the aim is to find the best proximity point and to prove its uniqueness on partial metric spaces where the symmetry condition is preserved for several types of contractive non-self mapping endowed with a graph. Our theorems generalize different results in the literature. In addition, we will illustrate the usability of our outcomes with some examples. The proposed model can be considered as a theoretical foundation for applications to real cases. Full article
