Abstract

Let $p$ be analytic in the unit disc U and let $q$ be univalent in U. In addition, let ${\Omega}$ be a set in C and let ${\psi}:c^3{\times}U{\rightarrow}C$. The author determines conditions on ${\psi}$ so that $$\{{\psi}(p(z),zp^{\prime}(z),z^2p^{{\prime}{\prime}}(z);z){\mid}z{\in}U\}{\subset}{\Omega}{\Rightarrow}p(U){\subset}q(U)$$. Applications of this result to differential inequalities, differential subordinations and integral inequalities are presented.
