Thank You.

If you are using a tiledmapservice then you can go for centerAndZoom(mapPoint, levelOrFactor)

use 0.5 to zoom in twice as far and 2.0 to zoom out twice as far.

or else you you go with 
map.setExtent(map.extent.expand(0.5));
 for Zooming in and
map.setExtent(map.extent.expand(2));
for Zooming out.

For Pan you can use the functions panUp(),pannDown(), panLeft(), panRight()
