No label defined (Q4471395)

Let A denote the class of functions \(f\) that are holomorphic in the unit disc \(U = \{z : | z| < 1\}\) and normalized by \(f(0) = f'(0) -1 = 0\), and let \(T\subset A\) consists of functions \(f\in A\), which are univalent in \(U\) and are of the form \(f(z) = z -\sum^\infty_{n=2} a_n z^n\), where \(a_n \geq 0\), \(n = 2,3,\dots\). Denote by \(D(\alpha,\beta,\lambda)\), \(\alpha\geq 0\), \(0\leq\beta <1\), \(\lambda >-1\), the set of all functions in \(T\) for which \[ \text{Re}\left\{\frac{z{D^\lambda f(z)}'}{D^\lambda f(z)}\right\}>\alpha\left| \frac{z(D^\lambda f(z))'}{D^\lambda f(z)}-1\right| +\beta,\quad z\in U, \] where the operator \(D^\lambda f\) (the Ruscheweyh derivative of \(f\)) is given by \(D^\lambda f(z)=\frac{z}{(1-z)^{1+\lambda}}* f(z)\), * stands for the convolution or Hadamard product of two power series. The class \(D(\alpha,\beta,\lambda)\) has been studied by \textit{S. Shams, S. R. Kulkarni}, and \textit{J. M. Jahangiri} [Kyungpook Math. J. 43, 579--585 (2003; Zbl 1067.30032)] and \(D(\alpha,0,0)\) by \textit{S. Kanas} and \textit{A. Wisniowska} [Rev. Roum. Math. Pures Appl. 45, 647--657 (2000; Zbl 0990.30010)]. In section 2 the authors study the effects of certain integral operators on the class \(D(\alpha,\beta,\lambda)\). Section 3 deals with the convolution properties of the class \(D(\alpha,\beta,\lambda)\) in connection with Gaussian hypergeometric functions.
