The fractional integral of order λ is defined, for a function f , by Z z f (ζ) 1 −λ (7.1) Dz f (z) = dζ (λ > 0), Γ(λ) 0 (z − ζ)1−λ where f is an analytic function in a simply – connected region of the z -plane containing the origin, and the multiplicity of (z − ζ)λ−1 is removed by requiring log(z − ζ) to be real when z − ζ > 0. Definition 7.2. The fractional derivative of order λ is defined, for a function f , by Z z 1 d f (ζ) λ (7.2) Dz f (z) = dζ (0 ≤ λ < 1), Γ(1 − λ) dz 0 (z − ζ)λ where f is constrained, and the multiplicity of (z − ζ)−λ is removed, as in Definition 7.1.

Let the function f defined by (1.2) be in the class A∗o (p, A, B, α).
