Convolution theorems for a class of bounded convex functions (Q1079689)

This paper was written and circulated as a preprint in 1978 but never published. Most of its results have been quoted and some have been generalized too. It is sufficient to quote the authors' abstract: Let C, \(S_{}\), \(S_ 0\) and K denote respectively the subclasses of normalized univalent functions which are convex, starlike of order \(1/2\), starlike and close-to-convex. Further, let \(C_{\gamma}\) be the subclass of C defined by \(| zf''(z)/f'(z)-\gamma | <1+\gamma\), \(\gamma\geq -\). The following results are established: (i) If \(f\in C_{\gamma}\) and \(g\in K\), then we have \(h=f*g\in S_ 0\) for \(\gamma <0.13\); (ii) If \(f\in C_{\gamma}\) and \(g\in S_ 0\) then \(h=f*g\) satisfies \(| zh'(z)/h(z)-1-\gamma | <1+\gamma\); and (iii) If \(f\in C_{\gamma}\) and \(g\in S_{}\), then \(h=f*g\) satisfies \[ Re(zh'(z)/h(z))>1/[(1+\alpha)((1+\alpha)^{1/\alpha}-1)],\quad when\quad \alpha =\gamma /(1+\gamma). \] Here * denotes the Hadamard product of analytic functions.
