Dragomir 2000 AMS Sub. Class.: 30C45. Key words: Close-to-convex function, Close-to-starlike function, Ruscheweyh derivative operator, Al-Oboudi differential operator and subordination relationship. Abstract: In this paper we introduce a new subclass of normalized analytic functions in the open unit disc which is defined by the Al-Oboudi differential operator. A coefficient inequality, extreme points and integral mean inequalities of a differential operator for this class are given. We investigate various subordination results for the subclass of analytic functions and obtain sufficient conditions for univalent close-to-starlikeness. We also discuss the boundedness properties associated with partial sums of functions in the class. Several interesting connections with the class of close-to-starlike and close-to-convex functions are also pointed out.

For f ∈ A, [1] has introduced the following differential operator. S.M.

A function f in A is said to be close-to-convex in U , of order α, that is, f ∈ C(α), if and only if (1.8) 0 Re{f (z)} > α (z ∈ U ). Definition 1.4. A function f in A is said to be close-to-starlike of order α (0 ≤ α < 1) in U , that is, f ∈ CS ∗ (α), if and only if f (z) (1.9) Re >α (z ∈ U \ {0}). z We note that the classes S, S ∗ (0) = S ∗ , K(0) = K, C(0) = C, CS ∗ (0) = CS ∗ are the well known classes of univalent, starlike, convex, close-to-convex and close-tostarlike functions in U , respectively. It is also clear that Definition 1.5. For two functions f and g analytic in U , we say that the function f (z) is subordinate to g(z) in U , and write (z ∈ U ) if there exists a Schwarz function w(z), analytic in U with w(0) = 0 and |w(z)| < 1 such that (1.11) f (z) = g(w(z)) vol. 10, iss. 2, art. 57, 2009 Title Page Contents JJ II J I Go Back (ii) K(α) ⊂ S ∗ (α) ⊂ C(α) ⊂ S. f (z) ≺ g(z) S.M.

To prove (6.1), it is sufficient to show that f (z) 1 1+z h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) − 1− ≺ fN (z) h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) 1−z II Page 18 of 22 The result is sharp for every N , with extremal functions given by (6.4) JJ (z ∈ U ). By the subordination property (1.11), we can write " P # k−1 1+ ∞ a z 1 k=2 k − 1− h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) PN h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) 1 + k=2 ak z k−1 = 1 + w(z) . 1 − w(z) Subclass Of Analytic Functions Notice that w(0) = 0 and S.M.

This completes the proof of (6.1). Finally, it is observed that equality in (6.1) is attained for the function given by (6.4) when z = re2πi/N as r → 1− . The proof of (6.2) is similar to that of (6.1), and is hence omitted. Close Using a similar method, we can prove the following theorem. Theorem 6.2. Let f (z) of the form (1.1) belong to K(γ, µ, m, β), and h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) ≥ N + 1. Then 0 f (z) N +1 Re ≥1− 0 fN (z) h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) Subclass Of Analytic Functions and Re fN0 (z) f 0 (z) ≥ h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) , N + 1 + h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) where h(N + 1, γ, µ, m, β) is given by (6.3). The result is sharp for every N , with extremal functions given by (6.4). S.M.
