A BSTRACT. We introduce inequalities involving multipliers for complex-valued multivalent
harmonic functions, using two sequences of positive real numbers. By specializing those sequences, we determine representation theorems, distortion bounds, integral convolutions, convex combinations and neighborhoods for such functions. The theorems presented, in many cases,
confirm or generalize various well-known results for corresponding classes of multivalent or univalent harmonic functions.
Key words and phrases: Multivalent harmonic, Multivalent harmonic starlike, Multivalent harmonic convex, Multiplier, Integral convolution, Neighborhood.

1. I NTRODUCTION
A continuous complex-valued function f = u + iv defined in a simply connected complex
domain D is said to be harmonic in D if both u and v are real harmonic in D. Such functions
admit the representation f = h + ḡ, where h and g are analytic in D. In [5], it was observed that
f = h + ḡ is locally univalent and sense preserving if and only if |g 0 (z)| < |h0 (z)|, z ∈ D.
The study of harmonic functions which are multivalent in the unit disc U = {z ∈ C : |z| <
1} was initiated by Duren, Hengartner and Laugesen [6]. However, passing from harmonic
univalent functions to the harmonic multivalent functions turns out to be quite non-trivial. In
view of the argument principle for harmonic functions obtained in [6], the second author and

Jahangiri [1, 2] introduced and studied certain subclasses of the family H(m), m ≥ 1, of all
m-valent harmonic and orientation preserving functions in U. A function f in H(m) can be
expressed as f = h + g, where h and g are analytic functions of the form

The class H(1) of harmonic univalent functions was studied by Clunie and Sheil-Small [5].
Let SH(m, α), m ≥ 1 and 0 ≤ α < 1 denote the class of functions f = h + g ∈ H(m)
which satisfy the condition
∂
(arg(f (reiθ ))) ≥ mα,
∂θ
(1.2)
for each z = reiθ , 0 ≤ θ < 2π, and 0 ≤ r < 1. A function f in SH(m, α) is called an m-valent
harmonic starlike function of order α. Also, let T H(m, α), m ≥ 1, denote the class of functions
f = h + g ∈ SH(m, α) so that h and g are of the form

The class T H(m, α) was studied by second author and Jahangiri in [1, 2]. In particular, they
stated the following:
Theorem A. Let f = h + ḡ be given by (1.3). Then f is in T H(m, α) if and only if

n − 1 + m(1 + α)
(1.4)
|an+m−1 | +
|bn+m−1 | ≤ 2,
m(1 − α)
m(1 − α)
n=1
where am = 1 and m ≥ 1.
Analogous to T H(m, α) is the class KH(m, α) of m-valent harmonic convex functions of
order α, 0 ≤ α < 1. More precisely, a function f = h + g, where h and g are of the form (1.3),
is in KH(m, α) if and only if it satisfies the condition
∂
∂

for each z = reiθ , 0 ≤ θ < 2π, and 0 ≤ r < 1.

[(n − 1 + m(1 − α))|an+m−1 | + (n − 1 + m(1 + α))|bn+m−1 | ] ≤ 2,
where am = 1 and m ≥ 1.
Inequalities (1.4) and (1.5) as well as several such known inequalities in the literature are the
motivating forces for introducing a multiplier family Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) for m ≥ 1. A
function f = h + ḡ, where h and g are given by (1.3), is said to be in the multiplier family
Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) if there exist sequences {cn+m−1 } and {dn+m−1 } of positive real
numbers such that

The multipliers {cn+m−1 } and {dn+m−1 } provide a transition from multivalent harmonic starlike functions to multivalent harmonic convex functions, including many more subclasses of
H(m) and H(1). For example,

(1.13)
F1 ({np }, {np }) := F ({np }, {np }),
p > 0,
F1 ({cn }, {dn }) := F ({cn }, {dn }).
(1.14)
While (1.7), (1.9) and (1.11) follow immediately from Theorem A, (1.8), (1.10) and (1.12)
are consequences of Theorem B. Note that T H and KH in (1.11) and (1.12) were studied in
[9] as well as [10]. Also, by letting m = 1, α = 0, cn = dn = np for p > 0 and b1 = 0, the
classes F1 ({np }, {np }) were studied in [8]. Finally, (1.14) follows from (1.6) by setting m = 1
which was studied in [3].
In this paper, we determine representation theorems, distortion bounds, convolutions, convex
combinations and neighborhoods of functions in Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }). As illustrations of
our results, the corresponding results for certain families are presented in the corollaries.
2. M AIN R ESULTS
If (n + m − 1) ≤ cn+m−1 and (n + m − 1) ≤ dn+m−1 , then by Theorem A we have
Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) ⊂ T H(m).
Consequently, the functions Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) are sense-preserving, harmonic and multivalent in U. We first observe that if

are in Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) and 0 ≤ λ ≤ 1, then so is the linear combination λf1 + (1 −
λ)f2 by (1.6). Therefore, Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) is a convex family.
Next we determine the extreme points of the closed convex hull of the family Fm ({cn+m−1 },
{dn+m−1 }), denoted by clcoFm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }).
Theorem 2.1. A function f = h + g is in clcoFm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) if and only if f has the
representation

(2.1)
f (z) =

In particular, the extreme points of Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }) are {hn+m−1 }, {gn+m−1 }.
hn+m−1 (z) = z m −
gn+m−1 (z) = z m +

In view of (1.7), Theorem 2.1 yields:
Corollary 2.2 ([2]). A function f = h + g is in clcoT H(m, α) if and only if f can be expressed
in the form (2.1), where
hm (z) = z m ,

Our next result provides distortion bounds for the functions in Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }).
Theorem 2.3. Let {cn+m−1 } and {dn+m−1 } be increasing sequences of positive real numbers
so that
cm+1 ≤ dm+1 ,
(n + m − 1) ≤ cn+m−1
and
(n + m − 1) ≤ dn+m−1
for all n ≥ 2. If f ∈ Fm ({cn+m−1 }, {dn+m−1 }), then

{dn+m−1 }).
Theorem 2.8. If (n + m − 1) ≤ cn+m−1 and (n + m − 1) ≤ dn+m−1 for all n + m − 1 ≥ 2,
