Abstract
Honoring Stephan Ruscheweyh’s magnificent contributions to complex analysis in general and to geometric function theory in particular, the cover of this volume shows a (modified) phase plot of a Ruscheweyh derivative of the complex tangent function. In this note we sketch some background.
Notes
The name was proposed by Al Amiri [2].
