Abstract

Orthogonal polynomials have been studied extensively by Legendre in 1784. They are representatively related to typically real functions, which played an important role in the geometric function theory, and its role of estimating coefficient bounds. This chapter associates certain bi-univalent functions with certain orthogonal polynomials, such as Gegnbauer polynomials and Horadam polynomials, and then explores some properties of the subclasses in hand. This chapter is concerned with the connection between orthogonal polynomials and bi-univalent functions. Our purpose is to introduce certain classes of bi-univalent functions by means of Gegenbauer polynomials and Hordam polynomials. Bounds for the initial coefficients of a2 and a3, and results related to Fekete–Szegö functional are obtained.

1. Introduction

Orthogonal polynomials appear in many areas of mathematics and play a vital role in the development of numerical and analytical approaches. Also, many mathematicians have been interested in its subjects. Orthogonal polynomials are gaining traction in current different mathematics, such as operator theory, number theory, special functions, analytic functions, and approximation theory. Also, has a wide range applications in physics and engineering fields. The subject of orthogonal polynomials finds its origins in 1784 by Legendre [1]. In the 18th century, the first examples of orthogonal polynomials were developed by brilliant mathematicians, before the general theory, which appeared in the 19th century. Orthogonal polynomials have been found to have connections with trigonometric, hypergeometric, Bessel, and elliptic functions, helping to solve certain problems in the theory of differential and integral equations, and in quantum mechanics and mathematical statistics. Up until the late 20th century, Szegö [2] covered most of the general theories along with all standard formulas for the three classical orthogonal polynomials. The connection of orthogonal polynomials with other branches of mathematics is very deep and impressive.

Officially, the classes of polynomials Pn defined over a range ab are orthogonal satisfy

degPn=n,n=0,1,2,3,

and

abPnPmWxdx=0,mn,

where Wx is nonnegative function in (a, b).

Orthogonal polynomials are among the most often studied polynomials, such as Gegenbauer polynomials, Hordam polynomials, Chebyshev polynomials of the first and the second kind, Laguerre polynomials, and Jacobi polynomial. Recently, several papers from a theoretical point of view and in the case of bi-univalent functions have been studied.

The main goal of this chapter focuses on some original results of bi-univalent functions by using Gegenbauer polynomials and Hordam polynomials. Estimates on the initial Taylor-Maclaurin coefficients and the Fekete-Szegö inequalities for some subclasses of bi univalent functions are obtained. Also, we give several illustrative examples of the bi-univalent function subclass, which we introduce here. To do so, we take into account the following definitions.

Let A represents the class of all functions of the form

fz=z+n=2anzn,E1

which are analytic in the open unit open disk U=z:zCz<1, and let S be the class of all functions in A, which are univalent and normalized by the conditions

f0=0=f01

in U.

For any two analytic function f1 and f2 in unit disk U, we say that f1 is subordinate to f2, and denoted by f1f2, if there exists Schwarz function

ϖz=n=1cnznϖ0=0ϖz<1,E2

analytic in U such that

f1z=f2ϖzzU,E3

where cn1 (see [3] for ϖz).

In particular, it is known that

fzgzzUf0=g0andfUgU.

Thus, clearly, every univalent function f has an inverse f1, defined by

f1fz=zzU,

and

f1fw=ww<r0fr0f14,

where

f1w=w+a2w2+2a223a3w35a235a2a3+a4w4+.E4

If f and f1 are univalent in U, then a function fA is called bi-univalent.

The study of the class Σ of bi-univalent functions was discussed by Lewin [4] while Brannan and Taha [5] derived estimates for the initial coefficients. Lately, Srivastava et al. [6] have actually revived the investigation of analytic and bi-univalent functions. Several researchers have investigated and examined various subclasses of analytic and bi-univalent functions, one can refer to the works of [7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20].

Ma and Minda [21] investigated the class of starlike and convex functions as the following

Sϕ=f:fAzfzfzϕz,zU,

and

Cϕ=f:fA1+zfzfzϕz,zU.

Clear that, if fzCϕ, then zfzSϕ.

Initiating an investigation on properties of bi-univalent functions linked by Gegenbauer polynomials and Hordam polynomials will be discussed in the following sections.

1.1 Applications of Gegenbauer polynomials to subclasses of bi-univalent functions

This section is devoted to studying and discussing Gegenbauer Polynomials by means of bi-univalent function. We first introduce the following definitions.

A generating function of Gegenbauer polynomials of the sequence Cnαx,nN is defined by the following:

Hγxz=n=0Cnαxzn=112xz+z2α,E5

where α is nonzero real constant, x11, zU, and Cnαx is defined by

Cnαx=2xn+α1Cn1αxn+2α2Cn2αxn.E6

It is clear that, C0αx=1,C1αx=2αx and C2αx=2α1+αx2α. Furthermore, we present some particular cases of Cnαx as follows:

  1. For α=0, we get the Chebyshev polynomials.

  2. For α=12, we get the Legendre polynomials.

A class of starlike bi-univalent functions is linked with Gegenbauer polynomial as follows.

Definition 2.1. Let γ1/2\0, and 0λ1, x1/21. A function fΣ given by Eq. (1) is said to be in the class QΣsHγ if there exist the following functions:

gz=z+n=2bnznS1/2,Gw=w+n=2tnwnS1/2

and the conditions are fulfilled

zfzfzHγxzzU,E7

and

wFwFwHγxwwU,E8

where F is the inverse of f is defined by Eq. (4) and Hγ is the generating function of the Gegenbauer polynomial given by Eq. (5).

Also, a class of convex bi-univalent functions linked with Gegenbauer polynomial as follows:

Definition 2.2. Let γ1/2\0 and 0λ1, x1/21. A function fΣ given by ?? is said to be in the class Q*ΣsHγ if there exist the following functions:

gz=z+n=2bnznS1/2,Gw=w+n=2tnwnS1/2

and the conditions are fulfilled

1+zfzfzHγxzzU,E9

and

wFwFwHγxwwU,E10

where F is the inverse of f is defined by Eq. (4) and Hγ is the generating function of the Gegenbauer polynomial given by Eq. (5).

Next section, we discuss some recent results of bi-univalent functions for several families associated with Gegenbauer polynomials and Hordam polynomials, respectively. For the proofs and details of the main theorems, one can refer to [7, 8, 9], respectively.

1.2 Initial Taylor coefficient estimates for the functions of QΣsHγ and Q*ΣsHγ

We begin this section by defining Fekete-Szegö inequality, which was given by Fekete and Szegö [2] and defined as follows.

If fS and η is real, then

a3ηa221+2e2η1μ.E11

This bound is sharp.

Theorem 2.1. Let the function f given by Eq. (1) be in the class QΣsHγ. Then

a22γx2γx4γγ1x2+2γE12

and

a3γ2x2+γx3.E13

For some ηR, we have

a3ηa22γx3,ifη112x26γx22γ2x31η12x2,ifη112x26γx2E14

For γ=1 in Theorem 2.1, we have the following corollary.

Corollary 2.1. Let the function f given by Eq. (1) be in the class QΣsH. Then

a22xxE15

and

a3x2+x3.E16

For some ηR, we have

a3ηa22x3,ifη112x26x22x31η12x2,ifη112x26x2E17

Theorem 2.2. Let the function f given by Eq. (1) be in the class Q*ΣsHγ. Then

a22γx2γx2γγ1x2+γE18

and

a34γ2x2+γx.E19

For some ηR, we have

a3ηa22γx,ifη12γx22x2+12γx28γ3x31η2γγ1x2+γ,ifη12γx22x2+12γx2E20

For γ=1 in Theorem 2.2, we have the following corollary.

Corollary 2.2. Let the function f given by Eq. (1) be in the class Q*ΣsHγ. Then

a22x2xE21

and

a34x2+x.E22

For some ηR, we have

a3ηa22x,ifη112x28x31η,ifη112x2E23

Next section is devoted to studying and discussing Hordam polynomials by means of bi-univalent function.

1.3 Applications of Hordam polynomials to subclasses of bi-univalent functions

We begin this section by introducing the recurrence relation of the Hordam polynomials, which was studied by Horzum and Koçer [22] as follows.

hnx=pxhn1x+qhn2x;nN2,E24

with

h1x=a,h2x=bx,h3x=pbx2+pq,E25

where a,b,p, and q are some real constants, and the characteristic equation of above recurrence relation is

t2pxtq=0,E26

with two real roots:

α=px+p2x2+4q2,

and

β=pxp2x2+4q2.

Selecting particular values of a,b,p, and q reduces to special various polynomials as follows:

  • If a=b=p=q=1, the Fibonacci polynomials sequence is obtained

    Fnx=xFn1x+Fn2x,F1x=1,F2x=x.

  • If a=2,b=p=q=1, the Lucas polynomials sequence is acquired

    Ln1x=xLn2x+Ln3x,L0x=2,L1x=x.

  • If a=q=1,b=p=2, the Pell polynomials sequence is attained

    Pnx=2xPn1x+Pn2x,p1x=1,P2x=2x.

  • If a=b=p=2,q=1, the Pell-Lucas polynomials sequence is obtained

    Qn1x=2xQn2x+Qn3x,Q0x=2,Q1x=2x.

  • If a=1,b=p=2,q=1, the Chebyshev polynomials of second kind sequence are acquired

    Un1x=2xUn2x+Un3x,U0x=1,U1x=2x.

  • If a=b=1,p=2,q=1, the Chebyshev polynomials of first kind sequence are obtained

    Tn1x=2xTn2x+Tn3x,T0x=1,T1x=x.

  • If x=1, the Horadam numbers sequence is derived

    hn11=phn21+qhn31,h01=a,h11=b.

For more details related to these polynomial sequences succession, can refer to [22, 23, 24, 25].

The generating function of the Horadam polynomials hnx is studied by Horadam [23] and defined as follows:

Ωxz=a+bapxt1pxtqt2=n=1hnxzn1.E27

New subclasses of the bi-univalent function class Σ associated with Horadam polynomial are presented in the following.

Definition 3.1. A function fΣ given by Eq. (1) is said to be in the class Σx if the following subordinations hold:

fzΩxz+1αE28

and

gwΩxw+1α,E29

where the real constants a, b, and q are as in Eq. (25) and g=f1 is given by Eq. (4).

Theorem 3.1. Let the function fΣ given by Eq. (1) be in the class Σx. Then

a2bxbxbx23b4p4aqE30
a3bx3+bx24,E31

and for some ηR,

a3ηa222bx3,η114pbx2+qa3b2x2bx31η3b2x24pbx2+qa,η114pbx2+qa3b2x2.E32

In light of relation (27), Theorem 3.1, we can readily deduce the following corollaries.

Corollary 3.1. For t1/21, let the function fΣ given by Eq. (1) be in the class Σt. Then

a2t2t1t2E33
a32t3+t2,E34

and for some ηR,

a3ηa224t3,η11t23t22η11t2,η11t23t2.E35

Taking η=1 in Corollary 3.1, we get the following corollary.

Corollary 3.2. For t1/21, let the function fΣ given by Eq. (1) be in the class Σt. Then

a3a224t3.E36

The class Ss of functions starlike with respect to symmetric points is introduced by Sakaguchi [26], consisting of functions fS that satisfy the following condition

2zfzfzfz>0,zU.

Similarly, the class Ks of functions convex with respect to symmetric points is introduced by Wang et al. [27], consisting of functions fS that satisfy the following condition

2zfzfz+fz>0,zU.

Moreover, Ravichandran [28] introduced the following two subclasses:

For such a function ϕ, then a function fA is in the class Ssϕ if

2zfzfzfzϕz,zU,

and in the class Ksϕ if

2zfzfz+fzϕzzU.

Recently, a new class Lλ of λ-pseudo-starlike functions is defined by Babalola [29] as the following:

Let fA and λ1 is real. Then fzLλ of λ-pseudo-starlike functions in U if and only if

zfzλfz0,zU.

More recently, the author introduced and studied two subclasses LΣλαx and MΣλαx of λ-pseudo-bi-univalent functions with respect to symmetrical points linked by the Horadam polynomials hnx and the generating function Ωxz as follows.

Definition 3.2. A function fΣ given by Eq. (1) is said to be in the class LΣλαx if the following conditions are satisfied:

1α2zfzλfzfz+α2zfzλfzfzΩxz+1αE37

and

1α2wgwλgwgw+α2wgwλgwgwΩxw+1αE38

where the real constants a, b, and q are as in Eq. (25) and gw=f1z is given by Eq. (4).

Definition 3.3. A function fΣ given by Eq. (1) is said to be in the class MΣλαx if the following conditions are satisfied:

2zfzλfzfzα2zfzλfzfz1αΩxz+1αE39

and

2wgwλgwgwα2wgwλgwgw1αΩxw+1αE40

where the real constants a, b, and q are as in Eq. (25) and gw=f1z is given by Eq. (4).

and for some ηR,

2. Conclusions

The study conducted in this chapter involves certain subclasses of bi-univalent functions examined by using Gegenbauer polynomials and Hordam polynomials, respectively, in the open unit disc. The main results are contained in which coefficient estimates are obtained for each subclass of bi-univalent functions, which could inspire researchers to focus on other aspects such as certain families of bi-univalent functions using other orthogonal polynomials.
