A single-valued function f(z) is said to be univalent in a domain if it never takes on the same value twice, that is, if f(z1) = f(z2) for implies that z1 = z2. A set is said to be starlike with respect to the line segment joining w0 to every other point lies entirely in . If a function f(z) maps onto a domain that is starlike with respect to w0, then f(z) is said to be starlike with respect to w0. In particular, if w0 is the origin, then we say that f(z) is a starlike function. Further, a set is said to be convex if the line segment joining any two points of lies entirely in . If a function f(z) maps onto a convex domain, then we say that f(z) is a convex function in .
