The authors define two subclasses of analytic functions in the open unit disc \(U\) of the complex plane as follows. \(S\) denotes the class of all normalized univalent functions in \(U\). Let \(f(z)= z+ \sum^\infty_{n=2} a_n z^n\in S\) with \(a_n\geq 0\). Let \(\lambda\geq 0\), \(0< \beta\leq 1\), \(0\leq\mu\leq 1\) and \(1\leq \alpha\leq 4/3\) be given. We say \(f\in S(\alpha, \beta,\mu)\) if \[ \Biggl| {{zf'(z)\over F(z)}- 1\over {zf'(z)\over F(z)}- [(1+ \mu)\alpha- 1]}\Biggr|< \beta\qquad (z\in U) \] where \(F(z)= (1-\lambda) f(z)+ \lambda zf'(z)\). Let also be \(S^*(\alpha,\beta,\mu)\) the class of all starlike functions in \(S(\alpha,\beta,\mu)\). In this paper the authors obtain a relationship between the classes \(S\), \(S(\alpha,\beta,\mu)\), \(S^*(\alpha,\beta,\mu)\). They also obtain distortion theorems and coefficient estimates for \(S^*(\alpha,\beta,\mu)\). The proofs are based on simple applications of known inequalities.
