On an open problem of S. Owa (Q1381595): Difference between revisions

Let \(T_n\) denote the set of all holomorphic functions \(f\) in the unit disc \(U=\{z:| z| <1\}\) where \(f\) has the Maclaurin series expansion of the form \(f(z)=z-\sum_{k=n+1}^{\infty}| a_k| z^k\), and \(f(z)/z \neq 0\) in \(U\). Let \(b\) be an arbitrary fixed nonzero complex number. Denote by \(T_n^*(b)\), \(O_n^*(b)\) and \(P_n^*(b)\), the classes of functions \(f\) in \(T_n\) satisfying the conditions Re\( \{1+ (1/b)(zf'(z)/f(z)-1)\}>0\) in \(U\), \(\sum_{k=n+1}^{\infty} (k-1+| b|)| a_k| \leq | b| \), and \(\sum_{k=n+1}^{\infty} [(k-1)(\text{ Re} b/| b|)+| b| ]| a_k| \leq | b| \), respectively. In this paper, the authors prove the following results: (I) \(O_n^*(b)\subset T_n^*(b)\subset P_n^*(b)\); (II) If \(b\) is a positive real number then one has \(O_n^*(b)= T_n^*(b)= P_n^*(b)\); (III) If Re\( b \in (-n/2,0]\), then we have \(P_n^*(b)\not\subset T_n^*(b)\); (IV) If \(b \in (-\infty, -n)\cup(-n/2,0)\), then \(T_n^*(b)\not\subset O_n^*(b)\).
