Some properties of completely convex functions
Abstract
We study the class CCα of completely convex functions of order α, defined through a two-point analogous of the classical convexity condition. We give several equivalent characterizations of CCα, together with representation formulas in terms of two auxiliary Schwarz functions linked by a compatibility equation. From these representations, we derive coefficient bounds, a subordination result zf'/f, and a two-point Taylor expansion in which the Schwarzian derivative Sf arises naturally as the coefficient of the linear term. This yields a pointwise bound for Sf and a bound for the pre-Schwarzian norm |Pf|CCα, improving the classical Yamashita bound when $α\leq 1-1/\sqrt2 $. We also show that, unlike the class Cα of convex functions of order α, every f∈ CCα is bounded when α>0.
