Abstract
We investigate radius problems for three classes of normalized analytic functions f characterized by its ratio with certain normalized analytic functions g. The first two classes consist of functions f satisfying \({\text {Re}} (f(z)/g(z))>0\) with either \({\text {Re}} (g(z)/s(z))>0\) or \({\text {Re}} (g(z)/s(z))>1/2\) and the other class consists of functions f satisfying \(\left|(f(z)/g(z))-1\right|<1\) with \({\text {Re}} (g(z)/s(z))>0\) for some starlike function s of order \(\alpha \), \(0\le \alpha <1\). For functions in these classes, we compute the various radii of starlikeness, including the radius of starlikeness of order \(\alpha \), and radius of Ma-Minda starlikeness associated with parabola, lemniscate of Bernoulli, exponential function, cardioid, sine, lune, rational function and nephroid.
