Abstract For 0 < λ ≤ 1, let U(λ) be the class of analytic functions in the unit disk D with f (0) = f (0) − 1 = 0 satisfying | f (z)(z/ f (z))2 − 1| < λ in D. Then, it is known that every f ∈ U(λ) is univalent in D. Let U(λ) = { f ∈ U(λ) : f (0) = 0}. The sharp distortion and growth estimates for the subclass U(λ) were known and many other properties are exclusively studied in Fourier and Ponnusamy (Complex Var. Elliptic Equ. 52(1):1–8, 2007), Obradovi´c and Ponnusamy ( Complex Variables Theory Appl. 44:173–191, 2001) and Obradovi´c and Ponnusamy (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 336:758–767, 2007). In contrast to the subclass U(λ), the full class U(λ) has been less well studied. The sharp distortion and growth estimates for the full class U(λ) are still unknown. In the present article, we shall prove the sharp estimate | f (0)| ≤ 2(1 + λ) for the full class U(λ). Furthermore, we shall determine the region of variability { f (z 0 ) : f ∈ U(λ)} for any fixed z 0 ∈ D\{0}. This leads to the sharp growth theorem, i.e., the sharp lower and upper estimates for | f (z 0 )| with f ∈ U(λ). As an application we shall also give the sharp covering theorems.

1 Introduction We denote the complex plane by C and the extended complex plane by C = C ∪ {∞}. For c ∈ C and r > 0 let D(c, r ) = {z ∈ C : |z − c| < r } and D = D(0, 1). Similarly, C\D(0, r ) = {z ∈ C : r < |z| ≤ ∞} and = 1 . let r = Let A denote the space of analytic functions in D and A0 = { f ∈ A : f (0) = f (0) − 1 = 0}. Here, we regard A as a topological vector space endowed with the topology of uniform convergence over compact subsets of D. A function f is said to be univalent in a domain D if it is one-to-one in D. Let S denote the class of univalent functions in A0 . A function f ∈ A is called starlike if f is univalent in D and f (D) is a starlike domain with respect to the origin. The class of starlike functions f ∈ S is denoted by S ∗ . It is known that for f ∈ A0 , f ∈ S ∗ if and only if f (z) Re z >0 f (z)
