SPECIALISATIONS AND GENERALISATIONS INSIDE THE UNIT DISC T N SHANMUGAM Abstract. In this paper, how generalisation and specialisations of various classes of functions defined in the unit disc U = {z : |z| < 1} came into being are discussed. Also certain types of problems and inequalities for the classes of Normalised analytic functions in the open unit disc are discussed.

1. Introduction Let A denote the set of all functions defined in the unit disk U = {z : |z| < 1} which has the Taylor series of the form (1)

f (z) = z +

∞ X

an z n

n=2

Let S denote a subclass A of functions which are univalent in the unit disk U . We describe various classes of functions defined by the geometric conditions and give their analytic conditions in the following: Definition 1 (Geometric Definition of Starlike function). A domain is starlike with respect to origin if every line segment from origin to any point in the domain is entirely inside the domain. A function f ∈ S is said to be starlike (more precisely starlike with respect to the origin) if the image of the unit disk is a starlike domain. An immediate generalisation, in view of the definition, of this class is the class of functions which are starlike with respect to any point instead of the origin. Definition 2 (Analytic Condition for Starlikeness). A function f ∈ S is said to be Starlike if it satisfies the condition (2)

Re

zf 0 (z) > 0 z ∈ U. f (z) 1

T N SHANMUGAM

This class of functions can be generalised to the class of starlike functions of order α as in the Definition 3. A function f ∈ S is said to be Starlike of order α if it satisfies the condition zf 0 (z) (3) Re > α 0 α < 1, z ∈ U. f (z) Definition 4 (Padmanabhan Starlike function of order α [8]). A function of the form (1) is starlike of order α if it satisfies zf 0 (z) − 1 f (z) (4) < α 0 < α ≤ 1. zf 0 (z) + 1 f (z) Definition 5 (Geometric Definition of Convex Function). A region is said to be convex if the line joining any two points lie in the region. A function f ∈ S is said to be a convex function if it maps the unit disc on to a convex region. Definition 6 (Analytic Definition of Convex function). A function f ∈ S is said to be a convex function if it satisfies the condition   zf 00 (z) (5) Re 1 + 0 > 0 z ∈ U. f (z) An immediate generalisation of this class is th class of convex functions of order α. A function f ∈ S is said to be a convex function of order α if it satisfies the condition   zf 00 (z) (6) Re 1 + 0 > α z ∈ U, 0 ≤ α < 1. f (z) Note that every convex function is starlike with respect to every point in the domain f (U ), hence every convex function is a starlike function but the converse need not be true. The best example of a starlike function which is not a convex function is the famous Koebe z function k(z) = (1−z) 2. Another important class of functions is the class of functions with positive real part P . A function p(z) = 1 + p1 z + p2 z 2 + . . . ∈ P if 0 (z) ∈ P. Rep(z) > 0. Note that f ∈ A is starlike if and only if zff (z) Next we have the class of functions called Close-to-Convex function: Definition 7. A function f is called a close to convex function if it satisfies   Z θ2 zf 00 (z) (7) Re 1 + 0 dθ > −π. f (z) θ1

Another way of defining the close -to -convex function is that f in S is said to be close -to -convex if there exists a convex function g such that f 0 (z) (8) Re 0 > 0 z ∈ U. g (z) Note that if g is taken as a starlike function and instead of the derivative of the function only the function is taken in the above we get a close -to -star function. Also by Specializing on the functions g(z), one can get different functions which are close-to-convex or closeto-star. Also observe that there is NO Characterisation of these classes of functions through their images like the one we had it for starlike functions or convex functions. The class of close-to-convex functions include the class of starlike functions and hence the class of convex functions as a sub class. A larger class of univalent function than this class was introduced by I.E.bazilevic[1] . Definition 8 (bazilevic[1). functions] A bazilevic[1] function of type (α, beta) is of the form Z z 1 tiβ−1 g α (t)h(t)dt} α+iβ (9) f (z) = {(α + iβ) 0

where g(z) is a starlike function, h(z) is a function with positive real part, α > 0, β is any real number. It was I.E. bazilevic[1] who proved every such function is single valued and univalent in the unit disk U. Analytically a function f in A is a bazilevic[1] function of type (α, β) if and only if eiλ f α+iβ−1 (z)f 0 (z) ∈P g α (z)z iβ−1 for some starlike function g and for a real λ.

(10)

The class of bazilevic[1] functions includes the following subclasses: (1) K — the class of convex functions (2) St — the class of Starlike functions (3) C — the class of close -to -convex functions (4) B(1, 0) — the class of bazilevic[1] functions of type (1,0). Definition 9 (subordination). Let f and g be two functions defined on the unit disk U . We say f is subordinate to g if f (0) = g(0) and f (U ) is a subset of g(U ). We write this as f ≺ g. The class P of caratheodory functions can be generalised using subordination. Note that a Riemann mapping of the unit disc onto the

4

T N SHANMUGAM

Right Half plane with p(0) = 1 is 1+z and hence the class P of functions 1−z with positive real part or Caratheodory functions can be expressed as those functions p(z) which are analytic in the unit disc with p(0) = 1 . This way of realising the caratheodory class and satisfying p(z) ≺ 1+z 1−z paved way for a generalisation by W. Janowski[5] as follows: Let −1 ≤ B < A ≤ 1 . Denote by P (A, B) the class of all functions p 1+Az analytic in the open unit disc U with p(0) = 1 and p(z) ≺ 1+Bz z ∈ U. Note that when B = −1 and A = 1 the class P (A, B) is the same as the caratheodory class. For various specialisation on A&B we get several subclases of P . This class was further generlalised by replacing the function f rac1 + z1 − z by any convex univalent function h(z) with h(0) =1 and real positive function as the class P (h) which is the class of functions p analytic in √ U and p ≺ h. Taking a special case as h(z) = 1 + π2 log( 1+1−sqrt(z) ) one z gets the class of functions which are parabolically real part positive as the the above function h(z) is the Riemann mapping which maps the open unit disc onto a parabolic region symetric about the Real axis with the vertex at the point z = 12 0 (z) 00 (z) 0 )0 Cosequently by requiring zff (z) , 1+ zff 0 (z) , (zf in the class P (A, B) g 0 (z) or P (h) we have the corresponding genralisations of the classes of starlike ,convex ,close -to -convex functions etc., As a general refernce to this kind of study the reader is refered to the following two books by P.L. Duran[ 3 ] and A.W.goodman [ 4 ]. 2. Coefficient Problems If f ∈ S has the form (1) , then finding an estimate for |an | is the coefficient problem. It was conjectured by Bieberbach that for f ∈ S, |an | ≤ n. This was proved affirmatively by Louis de Branches in the year 1984. When f is a starlike function the same inequality holds. When f is a convex function then |an| ≤ 1 . Such questions had been answered for several subclasses of S and still research is going on for some subclasses of functions. Bieberbach gave another coefficient estimate for functions in the class S as follows If f ∈ S has the form (1), then |a2 2 − a3 | ≤ 1. Marty relation for coefficients of functions in the class S. Let f be a function in the class S . Then f (z) has the form (1) and the coefficients satisfies the relation (11)

(n + 1)an+1 − 2a2 an − (n − 1)an−1 = 0,

provided |an | is the maximum for all functions in the class S. Problem. If f (z) is any analytic function in the unit disc and has the form (1) and satisfies the Marty relation for every n, is the function f univalent and an extremal function? 3. Integral Operator If f is a function inR a class S, An integral transform of f (z) is of z the form F (z) = k(z) 0 g(α, β, t)f (t)dt , where k(z) is a Normalising function which will make the function F (0) = 0 = F 0 (0) − 1. The question is: whenever f is in some favored class is F (z) also is in the same favored class?. This question arose after M.S Robertson (1964) proved that the function Z 2 z t F (z) = dt z o (1 − t)2 is Univalent . Hence this paved a way fo the generalised discussion of the various integral operators as follows Libera[6] (1965) Integral Operator Z 2 z f (t)dt F (z) = z 0 Bernadi[2] (1969) Integral Operator Z α+1 z F (z) = f (t)tα−1 dt α z 0 Note that when α = 1, this operator reduces to the Libera[6] operator.   β1 Z α+β z β α−1 F (z) = f (t) t dt zα 0 Rushweyh (1973) Integral Operator Note that when β = 1, this operator reduces to the Bernadi[2] operator. Mocanu[7] (1983) Integral Operator Z z 2 g 0 (t)g(t)dt F (z) = g(z) 0 Note that if g(z) = z the this F (z) is the same as the Libera[6] Operator. shanmugam[10](1987) Integral operators α  Z c + α1 z c−1 1 0 g (t)g (t)f α (t)dt Ag (f )(z) = g c (z) 0 + This operator generalises both the Rusheweyh and Mocanu[7] operator.

4. Convolution P Let f (z) = z + an z n and g(z) = z + an z n be in S, Ptwo functions n then their convolution is given by f ∗ g(z) = z + an bn z . Note that the Integral operators defined by Libera[6] and Bernadi[2] can also be represented interms of convolution of the function g with the function f in this case the function g is given by P

g(z) = z +

∞ X n=2

2 n z n+1

∞ X α+1 n g(z) = z + z α+n n=2

respectively. This gives rise to the following question. If f and g belong to some favored class is the convolution of f and g also belong to that favored class of functions? More particularly when g(z) is a convex function the above question was answered affirmatively by Rusheweyh and Shiel-small[ ]. From then on these types of questions were rised and answered either wholly or partially for several sub classes of S. Problem: If g(z) is a close-to-convex function, is the same result hold good? ¯ 5. Radius Problem The problem is to find the maximal radius r < 1 so that a function f has the property P in Ur = {z : |z| < r} or f (Ur ) has the property P. If f is a starlike function then we know that f need not be convex. The maximal radius r so that the image of the disk Ur under such function is convex is called the radius of the convexity of the class of starlike functions. Simillarly there are problems of finding r so that (1) If f is a function in some class imply that f is in some other class whenever |z| < r < 1 . (2) Finding the radius r so that the integral transform F of f is in the same class , if it is not in the same class . (3) if f and g is in some class of functions then to find and r so that f ∗ g also in the same class whenever |z| < r < 1. 6. Faber polynomial and Grunsky Inequality P The Class consists of all functions of the form g(z) = z + b0 + P∞ −n which are n=1 bn z Panalytic and univalent P in the domain ∆ = {z : |z| > 1}. The class P0 is a subclass of P consisting of all non- zero functions. The class 0 is a subclass of with b0 = 0.

GENERALISATION OF PICK-JULIA THEOREMS FOR OPERATORS IN A HILBERT SPACE RAJALAKSHMI RAJAGOPAL

Abstract. T. Ando and KyFan in their note ”Pick-Julia theorems for operators”, Math Z., 168, 23-34 (1979) have obtained Pick-Julia theorems for operator valued analytic functions. These results are generalised in this paper. Keywords: Operators, contraction, operator valued analytic function. AMS Subject Classification(2000): Primary 30C45.

1. Introduction Let H be a complex Hilbert space and T , a bounded linear transformation on H, which will be called an operator through out this paper. The norm of T denoted by k T k is given by k T k= sup{k T (x) k , x ∈ H, k x k= 1}. Let BL(H) denote the set of all bounded linear transformations or operators on H.A ∈ BL(H) is said to be invertible if there exists B ∈ BL(H) such that AB = BA = I, this bounded operator B, which is clearly unique is called the inverse of A and will be denoted by A−1 . An operator A is said to be self adjoint or Hermition if A = A∗ . An operator A is said to be unitary if AA∗ = A∗ A = I. For two Hermition operators A, B ∈ BL(H) we write A ≥ B to indicate A − Bis non negative, that is < (A − B)x, x >≥ 0, for every x ∈ H.A > B will mean that A − B is positive and invertible. For a positive operator A on H, the operator B on H such that BB = A is called the square root of A and denoted by A1/2 9

RAJALAKSHMI RAJAGOPAL

A contraction is an operator A with kAk ≤ 1, a proper contraction is an operator with kAk < 1. Potapav [4] has proved that (1)

kAk < 1 <=> I − A∗ A > 0.

Let f be a complex valued function which is analytic in a open neighbourhood N of the spectrum σ(T ) of an operator T , in the complex plane and let f (T ) denote the operator on H, defined by the Riesz Dunford integral [2] Z 1 f (T ) = f (z)(zI − T )−1 dz, 2πi c where I stands for the identity operator on H, C is a positively oriented simple closed rectifiable contour such that the inside domain D of C consists of σ(T ) and CU D ⊂ N . The limit used in defining the integral is in the norm topology of operators or uniform topology of operators. f (T ) can also be defined by the infinite series. f (T ) =

which converge in the norm topology. Let F (T ) denote the family of all functions of f which are analytic on some neighbourhood of σ(T ) [The neighbourhood need not be connected and can depend on f ∈ F (T )]. Remark: All functions f of the form ∞ X αk λk f (λ) = k=0

valid in a neighbourhood of σ(T ) will be called a functional calculus for an operator T if the series ∞ X f (T ) = αk T k k=0

can be manipulated as if T were a number. Let E = {z :| z |<|}. Let D = {w :| w − η |< δ} where η =

1 − αβ 1− | β |2

δ =

|α−β | , 1− | β |2

and

where α, β are complex numbers with | α |< 1, | β |< 1, | β |<| α | and 1 − Re(αβ) >| α − β |. Now D denote the image of E under φ where 1 + αz (2) φ(z) = 1 + βz Let z−1 ψ(z) = (3) ,z ∈ D α − βz clearly φ and ψ are inverses of each other and φ(E) = D and ψ(D) = E. We proceed to prove the following preliminary lemma, used in the sequel. Lemma 1. The Transformation δ(z − w) W = 2 δ − ((w − η)(z − η)) where w is a fixed point satisfying | w − η |< δ transforms D =| z − η |< δ onto | W |< 1, where (4) Proof

δ=

|α−β | 1 − αβ ;η = ; | α |< 1, | β |< 1 | 2 1− | β | 1− | β |2

Now W =

δ(z − w) δ 2 − (w − η)(z − η)

Then 0 z − w0 z−η 0 w−η 0 ,w = . | W |= 0 0 , where z = 1−wz δ δ 2 | z 0 − w0 | = | z 0 |2 + | w0 |2 −2Re(z 0 w0 ) We know | 1 − w0 z 0 |2 = 1+ | w0 |2 | z 0 |2 −2Re(z 0 w0 ) Therefore | z 0 − w0 | <| 1 − w0 z 0 | if and only if | z 0 |2 (1− | w0 |)2 < (1− | w0 |2 ). Thus, provided | w0 |< 1,the inequality holds if and only if | z 0 |< 1. That is, | W |< 1 if and only if | z − η |< δ, given that | w − η |< δ. Let H(E) denote the vector space of all analytic functions on E. For any two regions C1 and C2 of the complex plane, let H(C1 , C2 ) denote the class of all complex valued functions f analytic on C1 for which f (C1 ) ⊂ C2 . Let EH denote the set of all proper contraction on the

12

RAJALAKSHMI RAJAGOPAL

Hilbert Space H, that is all operators A on H such that k A k< 1. Let DH denote the set of all operators A on H with k A − ηI k< δ, where η and δ are given by (4). Let H(C, CH ) denote the class of operator valued functions F analytic in the region C such that F (z) ∈ CH where C is either E or D and CH will be either EH or DH . The next theorem due to Ky Fan [3] serves as an important tool in the proof of our results. Theorem A[3] For a complex valued function f ∈ H(E, E) and A ∈ EH , f (A) ∈ EH which in turn implies k f (A) k< 1.

2. Generalisation of Pick-Julia theorems for operator valued analytic functions. We require the following two lemmas to prove our theorems. Let (5) Φ(A, B) = (I − BB ∗ )−1/2 (A − B)(I − B ∗ A)−1 (I − B ∗ B)1/2 and −1/2 1 ∗ Ψ(A, B) = I − 2 (B − ηI)(B − ηI) (A − B) × δ ( −1  1/2 )  1 ∗ (B ∗ − ηI) (A − ηI) −1 δ × I − 2 (B − ηI)(B − η1) . I− δ δ δ 

(6) We now prove Lemma 2. Let A ∈ DH , B ∈ DH , then Ψ(A, B) ∈ EH ; and for any C ∈ EH , the inequality Ψ∗ (A, B)Ψ(A, B) ≤ C ∗ C is equivalent to   −1   (B ∗ − ηI)(A − ηI) (A∗ − ηI)(A − ηI) (A∗ − ηI)(B − ηI) I− I− I− δ2 δ2 δ2  1/2  1/2 1 ∗ 1 ∗ −1 ∗ ≤ I − 2(7) (B − ηI)(B − ηI) [I − C C] I − 2 (B − ηI)(B − ηI) δ δ Proof (8)

Let A1 =

(A − ηI) (B − ηI) , B1 = δ δ

Theorem B[1] If F ∈ H(E, EH ) and z, w ∈ E, then z − w 2 I. Φ(F (z), F (w))Φ(F (z), F (w)) ≤ 1 − wz We proceed to prove the following Theorem 1.

Hence F ∈ H(E, EH ). Also by (12). Φ∗ (F (z), F (w))Φ(F (z), F (w)) = U ∗ (W )Ψ∗ (G(z), G(w))Ψ(G(z), G(w))U (w) Where U (w) =

Then F ∈ H(E, EH ) Since f = F oψ, ψ being the inverse of φ, we have Φ(f (z), f (w)) = Φ[F (ψ(z)), F (ψ(w))] Hence by theorem 2 we get ψ(z) − ψ(w) 2 Φ∗ [F (ψ(z)), F (ψ(w))]Φ[F (ψ(z)), F (ψ(w))] ≤ I 1 − ψ(w)ψ(z) A direct but long calculation shows that ψ(z) − ψ(w) δ(z − w) = 2 1 − ψ(w)ψ(z) δ − (w − η(z − η)) and this completes the proof.Similar methods yield the following Theorem 3.

CONTRACTIONS OF SUBCLASSES OF HARMONIC UNIVALENT FUNCTIONS G. MURUGUSUNDARAMOORTHY, K. VIJAYA, AND THOMAS ROSY

Abstract. We consider complex valued harmonic functions of the form f = h + g where h and g are analytic in the open unit disc. For subclasses Goodman-Rønning type starlike and Goodman type convex harmonic functions, we investigate properties of the contraction map f (cz)/c, 0 < c < 1. For these classes, we determine extreme points, sharp coefficient and distortion bounds and various containment properties. Key words: contractions, harmonic, univalent, starlike, uniformly convex AMS Subject Classification: Primary 30 C45, Secondary 30C50

1. Introduction Recently, there has been interest[1,2,4,5,10] in studying the class of all complex valued harmonic functions defined in a simply connected domains. As is known such functions are representable in a simply connected domain D in the form f = h + g where h and g are analytic in this domain. Moreover, for mappings f of this type, the Jacobian Jf (z) = |h0 (z)|2 − |g 0 (z)|2 > 0,

z∈D

implies that a harmonic function f is sense preserving in D and locally univalent. Let H denote the family of functions f = h + g that are harmonic, complex valued, orientation preserving and univalent in the unit disk 21

We call h the analytic and g the co-analytic part of f . Note that H reduces to the class S of nomalized analytic univalent functions whenever the co-analytic part of f is zero. We may sometimes restrict ourselves to the subclass H 0 of functions in H so that b1 = fz (0) = 0. It is shown in [2] that both H and H 0 are normal families while only H 0 is compact. Goodman [3] defined uniformly convex (UCV) function with the analytic characterization that φ ∈ UCV if and only if   zφ00 (z) ζφ00 (z) Re 1 + 0 ≥ 0 , (z, ζ) ∈ U × U. φ (z) φ (z) Upon choosing ζ = −zeiλ in a suitable way, we may write φ ∈UCV if and only if   (1 + eiλ )zφ00 (z) ≥ 0, (z, ζ) ∈ U × U. Re 1 + φ0 (z) . Ronning [8 ] defined the class Sp consisting of functions ψ(z) = zφ0 (z) such that φ ∈ U CV . Upon choosing ζ = zeiλ the analytic chracterization of Sp may be written as ψ ∈ U CV if and only if   0 iλ zψ (z) iλ Re (1 + e ) −e ≥ 0. ψ(z) Rosy and etal [6,7 ], generalized the classes Sp and U CV to include harmonic functions and defined the class     0 iλ zf (z) iλ GH (α) = f ∈ H : Re (1 + e ) −e >α f (z)     (1 + eiλ )zf 00 (z) GKH (α) = f ∈ H : Re 1 + >α f 0 (z) where α(0 ≤ α < 1) and λ are real. We state the following theorems obtained in [ 6,7], which we shall need throughout this paper.

Motivated by Silverman[9], recently Ahuja and et. al. [1] studied the contractions of the mapping in harmonic starlike functions of order α and harmonic convex functions of order α in U . In this paper, we extend the above results to contractions of the mapping in GH (α) and GKH (α). A function F is said to be in GH (c, α) for some c, 0 ≤ c < 1 if F can be expressed by f (cz) h(cz) g(cz) = + , c c c f = h + g where h and g are the functions as given in (1) and satisfies the condition (2). Analogous to GH (c, α) is the family GKH (c, α) consisting of function F that can be expressed as (6), where f satis0 fies condition (4). Also let G0H (c, α) and GKH (c, α) be corresponding classes to GH (c, α) and GKH (c, α) where b1 = 0. (6)

 Theorem 2. The extreme points of G0H (c, α) consists of the functions 1−α P1 (z) = z, Pn (z) = z + xcn−1 z n , |x| = 1, (n = 2, 3, . . .) 2n − 1 − α and 1−α Qn (z) = z + ycn−1 z n , |y| = 1, (n = 1, 2, 3, . . .). 2n + 1 + α Proof. Consider the operator ∧ : G0H (1, α) → G0H (c, α) defined by ∧(f (z)) = F (z) = f (cz) . Note that clco G0H (1, α) = G0H (1, α) and ∧ is c an isomorphism from G0H (1, α) to G0H (c, α) and hence ∧ preserves extreme points and so the result can be seen to follow from Lemma 1.  As the family G0H (c, α) is compact and convex, the maximum or minimum value of G0H (c, α) of the real part of any continuous linear functional occurs at one of the extreme points of G0H (c, α) and hence we have the following two corollaries: P P∞ n n 0 Corollary 3.

MEROMORPHIC STARLIKE FUNCTIONS WITH POSITIVE COEFFICIENTS ASSOCIATED WITH PARABOLIC REGIONS V RAVICHANDRAN, S SIVAPRASAD KUMAR, AND R USHA Abstract. We study two subclasses of meromorphic starlike functions with positive coefficients which are similar to classes related to uniformly convex functions. AMS Subject Classification: 30C45 Key Words: uniformly convex function, meromorphic starlike functions.

1. Introduction The class of uniformly convex functions introduced by Goodman[2] are studied by various authors. Several new classes of functions related to these two classes are also introduced and studied. Rønning[7] and Ma and Minda[5, 4] have given a one variable characterization of the class of uniformly convex functions. Also Rønning defined a class Sp of starlike functions and generalised this class to SP (α, β)[8]. Murugusudaramoorthy et. al.[9], Bharathi et. al.[1] and Kanas[3] have studied the class of functions called uniformly k-convex functions. In this paper, we study two subclasses of meromorphic starlike functions with positive coefficients which are similar to the above mentioned classes SP (α, β) and the uniformly k-convex functions. Let ∞ 1 X ∗ Σp = {f |f (z) = + an z n , an ≥ 0}. z 1 Let Σ∗p (β) is the subclass of Σ∗p consisting of starlike functions of order β.   zf 0 (z) ∗ ∗ Σp (β) = f ∈ Σp | − Re ≥β . f (z) This class was studied by Mogra et. al. [6] and Uralegadi and Ganigi[10]. In this paper, we introduce two subclasses which are similar to the 33

classes SP (α, β) and the class of k-convex functions and study their properties. 2. Main Results We begin with the following: Definition 1. Let 0   0 zf (z) ∗ zf (z) P M Sp (α, β) = f ∈ Σp | + α + β ≤ −Re +α−β . f (z) f (z) Definition 2. Let f ∈ Σ∗p satisfies 0  0  zf (z) zf (z) −Re ≥ α + 1 + β, f (z) f (z)

α ≥ 0,

0 ≤ β < 1.

The class of all such functions is denoted by P M KS(α, β) Theorem 1. If f (z) ∈ P M Sp (α, β), then ∞ X (n + β)an ≤ 1 − β, or equivalently f (z) ∈ Proof. Since f (z) =

To obtain a converse to Theorem 1, we note that if f ∈ Σ∗p (β), then zf 0 (z) − ≤1−β − 1 f (z)

This is a circular disk |w − 1| ≤ 1 − β. This disk should be contained in the parabolic region |w − (α + β)| ≤ Re(w + α − β) or equivalently in v 2 ≤ 4α(u − β) where w = −zf 0 (z)/f (z) = u + iv. Note that when α → 0, the parabolic region reduced to the line segment v = 0. Therefore, the class Σ∗p (β) 6⊆ P M Sp (α, β) for small α ≥ 0. Hence we

determine conditions on α, β such that the disk |w −1| ≤ 1−β is inside |w − (α + β)| ≤ Re(w + α − β). To find such condition, we first find the radius of largest disk |w − a| ≤ Ra contained in the parabolic region. Then the required condition on α, β will be given by R1 ≥ 1 − β. The expression for Ra is given in the following: Lemma 1. : Let a > β. Then the disk |w − a| < Ra is contained in |w − (α + β)| ≤ Re{w + α − β} where

CERTAIN SUBCLASSES OF MEROMORPHIC FUNCTIONS USING CONVOLUTION AND DIFFERENTIAL SUBORDINATION A GANGADHARAN

Abstract. In this paper, we define certain subclasses of meromorphic functions using convolution and subordination. We study some properties of these subclaseses. Key Words: Meromorphic functions, convolution, subordination, starlike and convex functions AMS Subject Classification: 30C45

Padmanabhan and Manjini (1968) used the notion of Hadamard product to define certain classes of meromorphic functions in the unit disk which reduce in special cases to the classes of convex, starlike meromorphic functions. Here in this paper, we generalize their classes and study their properties. We need the following lemma to prove our results: Lemma 1. [1] Let β, γ ∈ C, h ∈ H(U ) be convex univalent in U with h(0) = 1 and let q ∈ H(U ) with q(0) = 0 and Re(βq(z) + γ) > 0, z ∈ U . If p(z) = 1 + p1 z + . . . is analytic in U , then p(z) +

zp0 (z) ≺ h(z) ⇐ p(z) ≺ h(z). βq(z) + γ

2. Main Results Definition 1. Let g be any fixed function ∈ M. Let Mgk (h) denote the class of functions f ∈ M such that   z(g ∗ f )00 (z) − 1+ ≺ h(z) (g ∗ f )0 (z) where (g ∗ f )0 (z) 6= 0 for z ∈ U. 1 1+z and h(z) = since (g ∗ f )(z) = f (z) z(1 − z) 1−z Mgk (h) reduces to the well known class of meromorphic convex univalent functions in U.

and Re h is bounded in U then Theorem 1. Suppose f ∈ k F ∈ Mg (h) for Re(γ + 2) > δ provided (g ∗ F )0 (z) 6= 0 for z ∈ U, where F is as given in Definition 2. Proof. From the definition 2. we get, zF 0 (z) + (γ + 2)F (z) = (γ + 1)F (z) and so (g ∗ zF 0 )(z) + (γ + 2)(g ∗ F )(z) = (γ + 1)(g ∗ F )(z) using (1) z(g ∗ F )0 (z) + (γ + 2)(g ∗ F )(z) = (γ + 1)(g ∗ f )(z).

(3)

Differentiating (3) and letting −p(z) = 1 +

z(g ∗ F )00 (z) (g ∗ F )0 (z)

we get

−p(z) + (γ + 2) =

(γ + 1)(g ∗ f )0 (z) (g ∗ F )0 (z)

and so we have   zp0 (z) z(g ∗ f )00 (z) p(z) + =− 1+ . −p(z) + (γ + 2) (g ∗ f )0 (z) Since f ∈ Mgk (h), we conclude by Lemma 1 that −p(z) ≺ h(z), for Re(−h(z) + γ + 2) > 0, z ∈ U which holds whenever Re(γ + 2) > δ. Hence F ∈ Mgk (h) for Re(γ + 2) > δ.  Definition 3. Let Mgs (h) denote the class of functions f ∈ M such that (g ∗ f )0 (z) ≺ h(z) −z (g ∗ f )(z) where (g ∗ f )(z) 6= 0 for z ∈ U.

44

1 1+z and h(z) = , then Mgs (h) reduces to the z 1−z well known class of meromorphic starlike univalent functions.

Remark 2. If g(z) =

Theorem 2. If f ∈ Mgk (h) then −zf 0 ∈ Mgs (h) Proof. Using (2) it is observed that z(g ∗ (−zf 0 ))0 (z) z(z ∗ f )00 (z) = 1 + (g ∗ (−zf 0 ))(z) (g ∗ f )0 (z) which implies the theorem.



Corollary 2. If f ∈ Mgk (h), Re h is bounded in U and g(z) = (γ + 2)F (z) − (γ + 1)f (z) where F is as given in definition 2 then g ∈ Mgs (h) for Re(γ + 2) > δ. Proof. Let f ∈ Mgk (h). By theorem 1, F ∈ Mgk (h) for Re(γ + 2) > δ. It follows from Theorem 2 that −zF 0 ∈ Mgs (h). But zf 0 (z) = (γ + 1)f (z) − (γ + 2)F (z). Hence the Corollary 2.  k (h), (α any real number), denote the class of Definition 4. Let Mg,α all function f ∈ M such that     (g ∗ f )00 (z) (g ∗ f )0 (z) Jg (α : f (z)) = α −1 − z + (1 − α) −z (g ∗ f )0 (z) (g ∗ f )(z)

with (g ∗ f 0 (z)) 6= 0 and (g ∗ f )(z) 6= 0 for z ∈ U. k (h) coincides with the class Mgk (h) Remark 3. For α = 1, the class Mg,α k and for α = 0 it reduces to the class Mgs (h). Thus the set Mg,α (h) gives a “continuous” passage from the class Mgk (h) to the class Mgs (h). k Theorem 3. (i) If f ∈ Mg,α (h) then k f ∈ Mg,0 (h) = Mgs (h) for α < 0. k k (ii) for α < β ≤ 0, Mg,α (h) ⊂ Mg,β (h).

Proof. (i) Let p(z) = −

z(g ∗ f )0 (z) , (g ∗ f )(z)

then −p(z) +

45

zp0 (z) z(g ∗ f )00 (z) =1+ p(z) g ∗ f 0 (z)

so it is seen that

αzp0 (z) + p(z). p(z) k (h) then by Lemma 1, it is concluded that p(z) ≺ h(z) If f ∈ Mg,α provided −h(z) Re( ) > 0, z ∈ U. α Jg (α, f (z)) = −

k (h) = Mgs (h) for α < 0. That is f ∈ Mg,0

(ii) If β = 0, Then this part reduces to part (i) therefore we assume k that β 6= 0. Suppose f ∈ Mg,α (h) then Jg (α; f (z)) ≺ h(z). Let z1 be any arbitrary point is U. Then Jg (α; f (z1 )) ∈ h(U ). Also by part (i) −z(g ∗ f )0 (z) ≺ h(z) (g ∗ f )(z) and so

−z1 (g ∗ f )0 (z1 ) ∈ h(U ). (g ∗ f )(z1 )

Now  Jg (β : f (z)) = since 0 <

β < 1 and h(U ) is convex, Jg (B; f (z)) ∈ h(U ). α

k Therefore Jg (β; f (z)) ≺ h(z) that is f ∈ Mg,β (h). k k (h). Mg,α (h) ⊆ f ∈ Mg,β

Then



g −1 (z) =

1 X zn + . z b n 0

This function g −1 (z) is holomorphic in 0 < |z| < 1 with simple pole at z = 0. k Theorem 4. If f ∈ Mg,α (h) and if we choose that branch of  α (g ∗ f )0 (z) −z (g ∗ f )(z)

which is equal to 1 at z = 0 then F ∈ Mgs1 (h) and G ∈ Mgs (h) where  α (g ∗ f )0 (z) F (z) = (g ∗ f )(z) −z , (g ∗ f )(z) 1 . G(z) = g −1 (z) ∗ F (z) and g1 = z(1 − z) Proof. From the definition of F (z), it is seen that 1 F (z) = + A0 + A1 z + · · · z 0 −zF (z) (k) and = Jg (α, f (z)) ≺ h(z) since f ∈ Mg,α . So F ∈ Mgs1 (h). F (z) G ∈ Mgs (h) follows from the fact that −z(g ∗ G)0 (z) k = Jg (α; f (z))andf ∈ Mg,α (h). (g ∗ G)(z)  Definition 6. If f ∈ Mgs (h) and k α = α(f ) = g.l.b [β/f ∈ Mg,β (h), β ≤ 0]

then f (z) is said to be of type α in Mgs (h) and written as f ∈ M (g, α). (Note that α is non-positive and may be −∞). Theorem 5. If f ∈ M (g, α) for some α in −∞ < α < 0 if and only k k if f ∈ Mg,β (h) for all β, α ≤ β ≤ 0 and f ∈ / Mg,β (h) for β < α. k Proof. If f ∈ M (g, α) then f ∈ Mg,β (h) for all β α < β ≤ 0. So Jg (β, f (z)) ≺ h(z) holds for z ∈ U and for all β, α < β ≤ 0. By ¯ ) for all z ∈ U where letting β → α we note that Jg (α; f (z)) lies in h(U

¯ ) is the closure of h(U ¯ ). Since Jg (α; f (z)) is an analytic function h(U in U by the Open mapping theorem it follows that the image of U by Jg (α; f (z)) must be a region or a point. But Jg (α; f (z)) is a nonconstant function because f (z) is so. Therefore the range of Jg (α; f (z)) must be a region and so Jg (α; f (z)) lies in h(U ) for all z ∈ U. That is k (h). The converse follows from the Jg (α; f (z)) ≺ h(z) hence f ∈ Mg,α definition of M (g, α).  Definition 7. Let MgR (h) denote the class of functions f ∈ M such that z(g ∗ f )(z) ≺ h(z), z ∈ U. 1 1+z and h(z) = , then MgR (h) is the z(1 − z) 1−z class of functions such that Re(zf (z)) > 0.

Remark 4. If g = g1 =

Theorem 6. If f ∈ MgR (h) then F ∈ MgR (h) where F is given by Definition 2. Proof. Let p(z) = z(g ∗ F )(z) then p0 (z) = (g ∗ F )(z) + z(g ∗ F )0 (z). Using (1), zp0 (z) + p(z) = z(g ∗ f )(z) ≺ h(z), γ+1 Since f ∈ MgR (h). Using Lemma 1, it follows that F ∈ MgR (h) since Re(γ + 1) > 0.  Definition 8. Let MgP (h) denote the class of functions f ∈ M such that −z 2 (g ∗ f )0 (z) ≺ h(z) z ∈ U. 1 1+z and h(z) = then MgP (h) is the z(1 − z) 1−z class of functions such that Remark 5. If g = g1 =

Re(z 2 f 0 (z)) > 0. Theorem 7. If f ∈ MgP (h) then F ∈ MgP (h) where F is given by definition 2. Proof. Let p(z) = −z 2 (g ∗ F )0 (z) Using the definition of F in (1), z(g ∗ F )0 (z) + (γ + 2)(g ∗ F )(z) = (γ + 1)(g ∗ f )(z) and so p(z) = (γ + 2)z(g ∗ F )(z) − (γ + 1)z(g ∗ f )(z)

48

differentiating this with respect to z zp0 (z) + p(z) = −z 2 (g ∗ f )0 (z) ≺ h(z) γ+1 since, f ∈ MgP (h). Then by Lemma 1, F ∈ MgP (h).



Theorem 8. If f ∈ MgP (h) then −zf 0 ∈ MgR (h) . Proof. Since −z 2 (g ∗ f )0 (z) = z(g ∗ −zf 0 )(z) the result follows immediately.  Theorem 9. The sets MgP (h) and MgR (h) are convex. Proof. Let f1 and f2 ∈ MgP (h) then −z 2 (g ∗ f1 )0 (z) ≺ h(z) and−z 2 (g ∗ f2 )0 (z) ≺ h(z). Let z1 be any arbitrary point in U. Then −z12 (g∗f1 )0 (z1 ) ∈ h(U ) and − z12 (g ∗ f2 )0 (z1 ) ∈ h(U ). Since h(U ) in convex, for 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, −tz12 (g ∗ f1 )0 (z1 ) − (1 − t)z12 (g ∗ f2 )0 (z1 ) ∈ h(U ). That is −z 2 [g ∗ (tf1 − (1 − t)f2 )0 ](z1 ) ∈ h(U ). Hence −z 2 [g ∗ (tf1 + (1 − t)f2 )0 ](z) ≺ h(z). This implies tf1 + (1 − t)f2 ∈ MgP (h). Thus MgP (h) is convex. Similarly MgR (h) is convex.

Our results extend several earlier results. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 30C45 Key words: Starlike function, convolution, subordination, negative coefficients

1. Introduction and Definitions P n Let T be the class of all analytic functions f (z) = z − ∞ n=2 an z , an ≥ 0 where z ∈ ∆ = {z; |z| < 1}. A function f (z) ∈ T is called a function with negative coefficients. The subclass of T consisting of starlike functions of order α is denoted by T S ∗ (α) is studied by Silverman[2]. Several other class of starlike functions with negative coefficients were studied; for eg. see[1]. In fact, Ahuja [1] has studied the class Tλ (α) consisting of functions f (z) ∈ T satisfying the condition: z(Dλ f (z))0 Re > α, Dλ f (z)

z ∈ ∆, λ > −1, α < 1.

Since Dλ f (z) = f (z) ∗ (1−z)z λ+1 , we can write   z(f ∗ g)0 (z) z Tλ (α) = f ∈ T ; > α, g(z) = , (f ∗ g)(z) (1 − z)λ+1 where * is Hadamard product of univalent functions. 49

z Note that a function f (z) is convex if zf 0 (z) = f (z)∗ (1−z) 2 is starlike function. Therefore the subclass of convex functions can be defined as above with g(z) = z/(1 − z)2 . Also the function f is starlike of order α if zf 0 (z) 1 + (1 − 2α)z ≺ . f (z) 1−z The class of starlike functions can be extended to a class where we replace the particular function 1+(1−2α)z by a more general function 1−z h(z).

In this article, we study the following class of functions which gives several well-known subclasses of functions for suitable choices of g(z), h(z): P n Definition 1. Let g(z) = z + ∞ n=2 bn z be a fixed analytic function in ∆ = {z : |z| < 1} and bn > 0, (n ≥ 2). P The class Sg∗ (h) consists n of analytic functions of the form f (z) = z + ∞ n=2 an z where an ≥ 0 ,(n ≥ 2), which satisfies   z(f ∗ g)0 (z) ≺ h(z), z ∈ ∆. (f ∗ g)(z) Let T Sg∗ (h) be the subclass of Sg∗ (h) consisting of functions with negative coefficients. When g(z) = z/(1 − z), h(z) = (1 + z)/(1 − z), the class T Sg∗ (h) is the class T S ∗ (α) of starlike functions with negative coeffcients of order α introduced and studied by Silverman[2]. Also when g(z) = z/(1 − z), Sg∗ (h) = S ∗ (h) and T Sg∗ (h) = T S ∗ (h) We assume that h(z) is an analytic function in ∆ with h(0) = 1, zh0 (z) h (0)h00 (0) > 0 and Reh(z) > α = h(−1). and Φ(z) = h(z)−1 is analytic univalent function in ∆ which maps ∆ onto a starlike region with respect to 1. 0

With this assumption on h, we have the following: Theorem 1. [3] A function f ∈ T S ∗ (h) if and only if ∞ X n=2

or f ∈ T S ∗ (α).

In this paper, we obtain the coefficient inequality, coefficient estimate, distortion theorem, and a convolution result for functions in our class T Sg∗ (α). Several earlier results follows from our results and are not indicated here.

2. Main Results We first prove a necessary and sufficient condition for functions to be in the class T Sg∗ (h) in the following: P n ∗ Theorem 2. A function f (z) = z − ∞ n=2 an z ∈ T Sg (h) if and only P∞ if n=2 (n − α)an bn ≤ 1 − α. Proof. Since f ∈ T Sg∗ (h) if and only if f ∗g ∈ T S ∗ (α), the result follows from Theorem 1.  1−α Theorem 3. If f ∈ T Sg∗ (h) then an ≤ (n−α)b with the equality only n 1−α n for functions of the form fn (z) = z − (n−α)bn z .

Abstract. In this paper, we extend a result on sufficient condition for starlikeness of order β for functions defined using Ruscheweyh derivatives. Key Words: Sufficient conditions, Ruscheweyh derivatives Mathematics Subject Classification: 30C45

Dedicated to the memory of Prof K S Padmanabhan 1. Introduction Let An be the class of all functions f (z) = z + an+1 z n+1 + · · · which are analytic in 4 = {z; |z| < 1} and let A1 = A. A function f (z) ∈ A is starlike of order α, 0 ≤ α < 1 if  0  zf (z) >α Re f (z) for all z ∈ 4. The class of all starlike functions of order α is denoted by S ∗ (α). We write S ∗ (0) simply as S ∗ . Recently Li and Owa [2] have proved the following: Theorem 1. If f (z) ∈ A satisfies  0   zf (z) zf 00 (z) α Re α 0 +1 >− , f (z) f (z) 2

z∈4

for some α (α ≥ 0), then f (z) ∈ S ∗ . In fact, Lewandowski, Miller and Zlotkiewics [1] and Ramesha, Kumar, and Padmanabhan [4] have proved weaker form of the above Theorem. If the number −α/2 is replaced by −α2 (1 − α)/4, (0 ≤ α < 2) 57

V. RAVICHANDRAN, C SELVARAJ, AND RAJALAKSHMI RAJAGOPAL

in the above condition, Li and Owa [2] have proved that f (z) is in S ∗ (α/2). Later the authors[5] have proved the following: Theorem 2. If f (z) ∈ An satisfies  0   zf (z) zf 00 (z) n αn Re α 0 +1 > αβ[β + − 1] + [β − ], f (z) f (z) 2 2

z ∈ 4,

(0 ≤ α, β ≤ 1), then f (z) ∈ S ∗ (β). In this paper we extend the above sufficient condition for functions defined by Ruscheweyh derivatives. To prove our result we need the following: Lemma 1. [3] Let Ω be a set in the complex plane C and suppose that Φ(z) is a mapping from C 2 × 4 to C which satisfies Φ(ix, y; z) 6∈ Ω for z ∈ 4, and for all real x, y such that y ≤ −n(1 + x2 )/2. If the function p(z) = 1 + cn z n + · · · is analytic in 4 and Φ(p(z), zp0 (z), z) ∈ Ω for all z ∈ 4, then Re p(z) > 0.

2. Main Result We begin with the definition of Ruscheweyh derivative: Definition 1 (2). Let f ∈ A. Then the Ruscheweyh derivative of f (z), denoted by Dδ f, is defined by Dδ f = f (z) ∗

z z , δ ≥ −1, where f (z) ∗ (1 − z)δ+1 (1 − z)δ+1

is the Hadamard product of f (z) and z/(1 − z)δ+1 . It is easy to verify the relation (1)

z(Dδ f (z))0 = (δ + 1)Dδ+1 f (z) − δDδ f (z).

We shall now prove a theorem which gives asufficient condition for δ+1 δ functions f (z) ∈ An to satisfy the condition Re D f (z)/D f (z) > β.

Theorem 1. Let f ∈ An and δ ≥ −1, 0 ≤ β < 1. If  δ+2  Dδ+1 f (z) D f (z) Dδ+1 f (z) Re a δ+1 +b +c Dδ f (z) D f (z) Dδ f (z)         n a(1 − β) δ+1 a 2 ≥− + a +b β + + c β, 2 δ+2 δ+2 (δ + 2)

z ∈ 4.

Proof. Let p(z) be defined by

(1 − β)p(z) + β =

Dδ+1 f (z) . Dδ f (z)

Differentiating the above equation and using (1), we have z(Dδ+1 f (z))0 z(Dδ f (z))0 (1 − β)zp0 (z) = − (1 − β)p(z) + β Dδ + 1f (z) Dδ f (z) (δ + 2)Dδ+2 f (z) − (δ + 1)Dδ+1 f (z) = Dδ+1 f (z) (δ + 1)Dδ+1 f (z) − δDδ f (z) − Dδ f (z) (δ + 2)Dδ+2 f (z) (δ + 1)Dδ+1 f (z) = − δ − Dδ+1 f (z) Dδ f (z)

Therefore, we have

By taking n = 1 and β = 0, we have the following: Corollary 1. Let f ∈ A and δ ≥ −1. If  Re

Note that D0 f (z) = f (z), D1 f (z) = zf 0 (z) and D2 f (z) = zf 0 (z) + By taking δ = 0, a/2 = α, b = 0, a + c = 1, we have the Theorem 2. 1 2 00 z f (z). 2

ON THE WEIGHTED MEAN OF UNIVALENT CONVEX FUNCTIONS OF ORDER ρ. T. V. SUDHARSAN, HELEN C. DAVID, AND K. G. SUBRAMANIAN

Abstract. In this paper, functions hλ given by hλ (z) = 2−1 [(1 − λ)f (z) + (1 + λ)g(z)], 0 ≤ λ < 1 are considered, where f, g belong to the class K(ρ) of all normalized univalent analytic functions defined in the unit disc ∆ = {z/|z| = r < 1} and which are convex of order ρ, with 0 ≤ ρ < 1 and the radius of ρ - convexity of the functions is found.

1. Introduction Let S denote the class of all univalent analytic functions f defined in the unit disc ∆ : {z/|z| = r < 1} with f (0) = f 0 (0) − 1 = 0. For a fixed ρ, 0 ≤ ρ < 1, let K(ρ) denote the sub-class of S consisting of all functions f satisfying the condition   zf 00 (z) Re 1 + 0 > ρ, |z| < 1. f (z) Functions in the class K(ρ) are known as univalent convex functions of order ρ [6]. Padmanabhan [4] has studied the problem of determination of the radius of ρ-convexity of the arithmetic mean of two functions in K(ρ) and proved that if f and g are two functions in K(ρ), then (f + g)/2 ∈ K(ρ), |z| < k, where k is the smallest positive root of the equation (1)

1 − 3r + 2r2 − 2r3 = 0.

Labelle and Rahman [1], have proved this result for ρ = 0. In fact, Padmanabhan [4] observes, quite interestingly, that this radius of convexity is independent of ρ and the result is not sharp. However, it is the aim of this paper to study the weighted mean hλ of functions in 69

70

the class K(ρ). More precisely we determine the radius of ρ-convexity for the weighted mean hλ (z) of f and g given by 1 hλ (z) = [(1 − λ)f (z) + (1 + λ)g(z)], 0 ≤ λ < 1, 2 where f, g ∈ K(ρ). The case ρ = 0, λ = 0 is Labelle and Rahman’s Theorem. It is to be noted that λ does not appear in the equation for the radius of ρ-convexity in the Theorem as given below, though ρ appears. The result is not sharp, as even in their case.

2. Main Result We need the following Lemmas in this connection: Lemma 1. ([3], Lemma 3). Let Pρ be the class of functions holomorphic in ∆ which satisfy P (0) = 1 and ReP (z) > ρ, 0 ≤ ρ < 1. Then 2 (1 + (1 − 2ρ)r ) P (z) − ≤ 2(1 − ρ)r , z ∈ ∆. (1 − r2 ) (1 − r2 ) In particular, we may take ([4], Lemma) P (z) = 1 +

zf 00 (z) , f ∈ K(ρ), z ∈ ∆. f 0 (z)

Lemma 2. ([2], p.111) If a < b, 0 < a, b < π/2, then sina/a > sinb/b. Theorem 1. Let f, g ∈ K(ρ) and hλ be defined as given above, then Re{1 + zh00λ (z)/h0λ (z)} > ρ, |z| < K, where K is the smallest positive root of the equation (2)

1 − 3r + 2(1 + 2ρ − ρ2 )r2 (1 − r) = 0.

Proof. With hλ (z) as in theorem and Cλ = (1 + λ)/(1 − λ), Rλ = Cλ R, we have, on writing g 0 (z)/f 0 (z) = Reiφ

z[(1 − λ)f 00 (z) + (1 + λ)g 00 (z)] (1 − λ)f 0 (z) + (1 + λ)g 0 (z)  00  f (z) g 00 (z)Rλ eiφ = z + (1 + Rλ eiφ )−1 f 0 (z) g 0 (z)

zh00λ (z)/h0λ (z) = (3)

WEIGHTED MEAN OF CONVEX FUNCTIONS

71

Writing (4)

ζ = (1 + Rλ eiφ )−1 = νeiψ

and with p(z) − 1 = w(z) = zf 00 (z)/f 0 (z), we find from Lemma 1,

(5)

|wζ − 2r2 (1 − ρ)ζ/(1 − r2 )| ≤ 2rν(1 − ρ)/(1 − r2 )

Thus, for |z| = r < 1, we have from (4) and (5)

Re[(zf 00 (z)/f 0 (z))(1 + Rλ eiψ )−1 ] = Re(wζ) (6) ≥ 2ν(1 − ρ)r(rcosψ − 1)/(1 − r2 ) where

(7)

ψ = arg(1 + Rλ eiφ )−1 = arc tan{Rλ sinφ/(1 + Rλ cosφ)},

(8)

ν = (1 + 2Rλ cosφ + Rλ2 )−1/2

so that (9)

cosψ = ν(1 + Rλ cosφ).

Again from Lemma 1, in a similar manner, on taking (10)

0

ν 0 eiψ = Rλ eiφ (1 + Rλ eiφ )−1

so that (11)

ν 0 = νRλ and cosψ 0 = ν(Rλ + cosφ),

Re[(zg 00 (z)/g 0 (z)){Rλ eiφ (1 + Rλ eiφ )−1 }] (12)

≥ {2r(1 − r2 )−1 }{(1 − ρ)ν 0 (rcosψ 0 − 1)} = 2(1 − ρ)νrRλ [(Rλ + cosφ)νr − 1](1 − r2 )−1 .

Using (6) and (12) in (3), we get

Re{zh00λ (z)/h0λ (z) + 1 − ρ} ≥ (1 − ρ) + 2νr(1 − ρ) [(r/ν) − 1 − Rλ ](1 − r2 )−1 = (1 − ρ) + (1 − ρ)[2r2 − 2νr(1 + Rλ )] (13) (1 − r2 )−1 . Again, if φ(z) ∈ K(ρ), |z| = r < 1, we have ([5], Theorem 5. p. 728) (14)

|arg φ0 (z)| ≤ 2(1 − ρ) arc sin r, arc sin 0 = 0,

which is a sharp estimate, for 0 ≤ ρ < 1, so that for f (z), g(z) ∈ K(ρ), |φ| = |arg(g 0 (z)/f 0 (z))| ≤ |arg g 0 (z)| + |arg f 0 (z)| ≤ 4(1 − ρ) arc sin r. √ Thus, for r < 1/ 2, cosφ ≥ cos[4(1 − ρ) arc sin r] (15) = 1 + 8sin4 [(1 − ρ) arc sin r] − 8sin2 [(1 − ρ) arc sin r]. Using Lemma 2, with a = (1 − ρ) arc sin r, b = arc sin r ≤ π/4. We get, since 0 ≤ ρ < 1, (16)

sin[(1 − ρ) arc sin r] ≥ (1 − ρ) sin(arc sin r) = (1 − ρ)r.

Therefore, (15) and (16) now give, since sint ≤ t (t ≥ 0), (17)

cosφ ≥ 1 + 8(1 − ρ)4 r4 − 8(1 − ρ) arc sin r)2 .

Now, on using (17), we have (18) 1+Rλ2 +2Rλ cosφ ≥ 1+Rλ2 +2Rλ {1+8(1−ρ)4 r4 −8(1−ρ)2 (arc sin r)2 } so that from (18), we obtain ν ≤ [1 + Rλ2 + 2Rλ {1 + 8(1 − ρ)4 r4 − 8(1 − ρ)(arc sin r)2 }]−1/2 (19) = Hλ (r), say.

Finally, from (13), (19) and (20) we get

Re[1 + zhλ (z)/h0λ (z) − ρ] ≥ (1 − ρ)[(1 + r2 ) − 2r(1 − 4(1 − ρ)2 (arc sin r)2 + 4(1 − ρ)4 r4 )−1/2 ] ≥ 0, if (21)

(1 + r2 )2 [1 − 4(1 − ρ)2 (arc sin r)2 + 4(1 − ρ)4 r4 ] ≥ 4r2

Since arc sin r ≥ r ≥ 0, we have from (21) (1 + r2 )2 [1 − 4(1 − ρ)2 r2 + 4(1 − ρ)4 r4 ] ≥ 4r2 , or (1 + r2 )[1 − 2(1 − ρ)2 r2 ] ≥ 2r. Thus 1 − 2r + (1 − 2(1 − ρ)2 )r2 − 2(1 − ρ)2 r4 ≥ 0 or 1 − 2r + (1 − 2(1 − ρ)2 )r2 + (2(1 − ρ)2 − 4)r4 ≥ 0, since 2(1 − ρ)2 − 4 ≥ −2(1 − ρ)2 , 0 ≤ ρ < 1, or (1 + r)(1 − 3r + 2(2 − (1 − ρ)2 )r2 + (2(1 − ρ)2 − 4)r3 ) ≥ 0 √ so that from (22) with r < 1/ 2 < 1, the radius of convexity is the smallest positive root K of the equation (22)

1 − 3r + 2(1 + 2ρ − ρ2 )r2 (1 − r) = 0, which is (2) of Theorem. Remark 1. The above theorem does not however provide a sharp result but provides a more interesting result when compared to that of Padmanabhan [4] which is just the case λ = 0, but without ρ in (2) of Theorem 1.

The fractional integral of order k is defined, for a function f (z), by Z z 1 f (ξ) −k (5) Dz f (z) = dξ (k > 0) Γk 0 (z − ξ)1−k where f (z) is an analytic function in a simply connected region of the zplane containing the origin and the multiplicity of (z −ξ)k−1 is removed by requiring log(z − ξ) to be real when z − ξ > 0.

For the function belonging to the general class Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k) we prove number of sharp results including for example coefficient estimate, distortion theorem, Closure theorem, and radius of starlikeness. By specializing parameters we get results earlier obtained by Ahmad and Sharma [1], Srivastava and Aouf [4].

2. Coefficient Estimate Theorem 1. A function f (z) defined by (2) is in class Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k) if and only if (8) ∞ X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) (1 + β(2λ − 1))ap+n ≤ βλ(2 − α(1 + µ)). Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1 The condition (8) is sharp.

Proof. Assume that the inequality (8) holds true and Let |z| = 1. Then we obtain k,p |Ωk,p f (z) − 1| − β|(2λΩk,p z f (z) − α(1 + µ)λ) − (Ωz f (z) − 1)| z∞ X Γ(p + n + 1)Γ(1 + p − k) = − ap+n z n Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1 " # ∞ X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) ap+n z n ] − α(1 + µ)λ −β 2λ[1 − Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1 ∞ X Γ(p + n + 1)Γ(1 + p − k) −[− ap+n z n ] Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1

To prove the converse, assume that f (z) is defined by (2) and is in the class Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k), so that the condition (4) readily yields. k,p Ω f (z) − 1 z (9) 2(λΩk,p f (z) − α(1 + µ)λ) − Ωk,p f (z) − 1 z z ∞ X Γ(p + n + 1)Γ(1 + p − k) = ap+n z n × n=1 Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) −1 ∞ X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) n ap+n z < β (2λ − α(1 + µ)λ) − (2λ − 1) Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1 Since |Re(z)| ≤ |z|, we find from (9) that (" ∞ # X Γ(p + n + 1)Γ(1 + p − k) (10) Re ap+n z n Γ(1 + p)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1 #−1  " ∞  X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) n ap+n z < β.

whenever z ∈ U . Proof. Since f (z) ∈ Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k) in view of Theorem 1, we have (18) ∞ X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) (1 + p)[1 + β(2λ − 1)] X ap+n ≤ [1+β(2λ−1)]ap+n 1+p−k Γ(p + 1)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) n=1 ≤ βλ[2 − α(1 + µ)], which yields in (19)

Theorem 3. Let the function fj (z)(j = 1, ...m) defined by (24) be in the classes Tp (αj , βj , λj , µj , k)(j = 1, ...m), respectively. Then the function h(z) defined by ! ∞ m X X 1 (25) h(z) = z p − ap+n,j z p+n m n=1 j=1 is in the class Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k) where (26)

α = min1≤j≤m (αj ), λ = max1≤j≤m (λj ),

β = max1≤j≤m (βj ), µ = min1≤j≤m (µj )

Proof. Since fj ∈ Tp (αj , βj , λj , µj , k)(j = 1, ...m) , then by using Theorem 1, to definition (24), we get ∞ m X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) 1 X [ ap+n,j ] Γ(p + 1)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) m n=1 j=1 m

where α, β, λ, and µ are given by (26). Thus we have (27) ∞ m X 1 X Γ(n + 1 + p)Γ(1 + p − k) [1+β(2λ−1)][ ap+n,j ] ≤ βλ[2−α(1+µ)] Γ(p + 1)Γ(n + p + 1 − k) m j=1 n=1 which in view of Theorem 1, implies that h(z) ∈ Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k). The proof of Theorem 3 is completed. Next we state and prove  Theorem 4. The class Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k) is convex. Proof. Let the function fj (z)(j = 1, 2) defined by (24) are in the class Tp (α, β, λ, µ, k) Then it is sufficient to prove that (28)

Theorem 1, implies that f ∈ Tp (α, β, λ, µ; k). Conversely assume that the function f (z) defined by (2) is in the class Tp (α, β, λ, µ; k) then, using (13) of corollary 1, we have (34)

we can readily see that f (z) can be expressed precisely as in (32). This evidently completes the proof of Theorem 5.  Theorem 6. Let the function f (z) defined by (2) be in the class Tp (α, β, λ, µ; k). Then f (z) is p-valent starlike of order δ(0 ≤ δ < p)in the disc |z| < r1 , where (37)  1/n (p − δ)[1 + β(2λ − 1)]Γ(1 + p − k)Γ(1 + p + n) r1 = r1 (p, α, β, µ, λ, k, δ) = inf .

Furthermore, a function f (z) ∈ Mp is said to be meromorphically convex of order α in D if it satisfies the inequality:   zf 00 (z) (3) −Re 1 + 0 > α, (0 ≤ α < 1; z ∈ D). f (z) A function f (z) is said to be meromorphically convex of order α (0 ≤ α < 1) if and only if zf 0 (z) is meromorphically starlike of order α (0 ≤ α < 1).

A function f (z) ∈ Mp is said to be in the class Mp also satisfy the inequality: zf (q+1) (z) < α, (4) − − (q + 1) f (q) (z)

(q; α) if it

(0 < α ≤ 1; z ∈ D; p ≥ q; p ∈ N; q ∈ N0 = N ∪ {0}). where (5) ∞ X n! Aq!(−1)q (q) f (z) = +B an z n−q , (p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 ). q+1 z (n − q)! n=p (A,B)

In view of the above definition of the class Mp (q; α), it is easily (A,B) verified that the class Mp (q; α) can be identified with the class of (i) Meromorphically starlike functions of order 1 − α (0 < α ≤ 1) when q = 0. (ii) Meromorphically convex functions of order 1 − α (0 < α ≤ 1) when q = 1. (A,B)

Some other interesting subclasses of the class Mp were studied recently by Chen et al. [2,3], Altinates et al. [1], Cho et al [5,6], and others [4], [2] and [14].

2. Coefficient Bounds for Functions in the class (A,B) Mp (q; α) (A,B)

A necessary and sufficient condition for function f (z) ∈ Mp with A = B = 1 is provided by

(q; α)

(1,1)

Theorem 1. Let a function f (z) be in the class Mp . Then, the (1,1) function f (z) belongs to the class Mp (q; α) if and only if (6) ∞ X n![n + 1 − (−1)−q α] an ≤ αq!, (p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 , α ≤ 1). (n − q)! n=p The result is sharp, the extremal function being given by (7)

f (z) =

1 αq!(p − q)! + zp, z p![p + 1 − (−1)−q α]

(p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 ).

(1,1)

Proof. Suppose that the function f (z) ∈ Mp , and the inequality (6) holds true. Then, making use of the differential operator defined by (5) with A = B = 1, we find for z ∈ ∂D that |zf (q+1) (z) + (q + 1)f (q) (z)| − α|f (q) (z)| ( ) ∞ ∞ X X n! n! an z n−q − α (−1)q q! + (−1)−q an z n−q = (n − q − 1)! (n − q)! ≤

n=p ∞ X n=p

n=p

−q

n![n + 1 − (−1) α] an − αq! ≤ 0, (n − q)!

by virtue of the inequality (6). Hence, by the maximum modulus the(1,1) orem, we have f (z) ∈ Mp (q, α). To prove the converse, we suppose that f (z) is defined by (1) with (1,1) A = B = 1, and is in the class Mp (q; α), so that the condition (4) readily yields: (8) P∞ (q+1) n! n+1 (q) zf (z) + (q + 1)f (z) n=p (n−q−1)! an z = P < α, ∞ n! (q) −q n+1 q! + (−1) f (z) n=p (n−q)! an z (z ∈ D; p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 , 0 < α ≤ 1).

S B JOSHI

Since |Re(z)| ≤ |z| for any z, if we choose z to be real and z → 1−, we shall find from (8) that ( ) ∞ ∞ X X n! n! an ≤ α q! + (−1)−1 an , (n − q − 1)! (n − q)! n=p n=p which readily yields the desired assertion (6) of Theorem 1. Finally, by observing that the function f (z) given by (7), is indeed extremal function for the assertion (6), we complete the proof of Theorem 1.  (1,−1)

Theorem 2. Let a function f (z) be in the class Mp . Then, the (1,−1) function f (z) belongs to the class Mp (q; α) if and only if ∞ X n! (9) an ≤ αq!, (p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 , 0 < α ≤ 1). (n − q)! n=p The result is sharp, the extremal function being given by 1 αq!(p − q)! (10) f (z) = − z p , (p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 ). z p![p + 1 + (−1)−q α] The following corollaries are rather immediate consequences of Theorem 1 and Theorem 2, respectively. (1,1)

Corollary 1. If f (z) ∈ Mp (11)

Corollary 2. If f (z) ∈ Mp (12)

(q, α), then

(n > p ≥ q; p ∈ N, q ∈ N0 ).

3. Growth and Distortion Theorems for Functions (1,1) belonging to the Class Mp (q, α) In this section, we shall prove several growth and distortion theo(1,1) rems for functions belonging to the calss Mp (q, α). Each of these theorems would involve generalized fractional calculus (that is generalized fractional integral and generalized fractional derivative), which are defined as follows (c.f., e.g., [11], and see (also) [13]).

Definition 1. Let β ∈ R+ and φ, η ∈ R. Then, in terms of the familiar (Gauss’s) hypergeometric function 2 F1 , the generalized fractional β,φ,η is defined by integral operator I0,z Z z −β−φ z t β,φ,η (13) I0,z {g(z)} = (z − t)β−1 g(t)2 F1 (β + φ, −η; β; 1 − )dt, Γ(β) 0 z where the function g(z) is an analytic in simply-connected region of the z-plane containing the origin, with the order (14)

g(z) = O(|z| ),

(z → 0),

for  > max{0, φ − η} − 1, and the multiplicity of (z − t)β−1 is removed by requiring log(z − t) to be real when z − t > 0. Definition 2. Let 0 ≤ β < 1 and φ, η ∈ R. Then, the generalized β,φ,η is defined for a function g(z), by fractional derivative operator J0,z β,φ,η J0,z {g(z)}

(15) ( =

R d β−φ z 1 z (z − t)β−1 g(t)2 F1 (β Γ(1−β) dz 0 ν d J β,φ,η {g(z)} (ν ≤ β < ν + 1; ν dz ν 0,z

+ φ, −η; β; 1 − zt )dt, ∈N

(0 ≤ β < 1)

where the function g(z) is analytic in a simply-connected region of the z-plane containing the origin, with the order as given by (14), and the multiplicity of (z − t)−β is removed by the requiring log(z − t) to be real when z − t > 0. From the definition 1 and definition 2 it is clear that (c.f., [12,13]) : (16) (17)

β,−β,η I0,z {g(z)} = Dz−β {g(z)}, β,β,η J0,z {g(z)}

= Dzβ {g(z)},

(β > 0); (0 ≤ β).

Now we state two auxiliary results. Lemma 1. ([14], p. 415, Lemma 3). If µ > 0 and m > β − η − 1, then Γ(m + 1)Γ(m − β + η + 1) µ,β,η {z m } = (18) I0,z z m−β . Γ(m − β + 1)Γ(m − µ + η + 1) Lemma 2. ([12], p. 15, Eq. (2.2), or, [4], p. 85, Eq. (2.3)). If 0 ≤ µ < 1 and m > β − η − 1, then Γ(m + 1)Γ(m − β + η + 1) µ,β,η (19) J0,z {z m } = z m−β . Γ(m − β + 1)Γ(m − µ + η + 1)

S B JOSHI

Now, we can give and prove some growth and distortion theorems β,φ,η β,φ,η involving the generalized fractional operators I0,z and J0,z respectively. Theorem 3. Let µ > 0 and β, η ∈ R such that β < 2, µ + η + 2 > 0, β − η < 2. If n is positive integer such that n≥

(20) (1,1)

and, if f (z) ∈ Mp (21)

β(µ + η) − 2, µ (1,1)

is in the class Mp

(q; α), then

µ,β,η I0,z {z q+2 f (q) (z)} q!Γ(2 − β + η) − |z|1−β Γ(2 − β)Γ(2 + µ + η) αq!(p + 2)!Γ(p − β + η + 3) ≤ |z|p−β+2 Γ(p − β + η + 3)Γ(p + µ + η + 3)[p + 1 − (−1)q α]

for z ∈ U if β ≤ 1 and z ∈ U − {0} if β > 1. The inequalities in (21) are obtained by the function f (z) given by (7) . (1,1)

Proof. Suppose that f (z) ∈ Mp (q, α). Under the hypotheses of Theorem 2, it follows from the inequality (6) that [p + 1 − (−1)q α]

∞ X n=p



X n![n + 1 − (−1)q α] n! an ≤ an ≤ αq! (n − q)! (n − q)! n=p

which evidently yields (22)

∞ X n=p

αq! n! an ≤ , (n − q)! P + 1 − (−1)−q α

(p > q; p ∈ N; q ∈ N0 ).

From which (1) and Lemma 1, we have that µ,β,η I0,z {z q+2 f (q) (z)} =

(23)

Γ(2 − β + η) z 1−β Γ(2 − β)Γ(2 + µ + η) ∞ X n!Γ(n + 3)Γ(n − β + η + 3)

where, for convenience, Θ(n) =

Γ(n + 3)Γ(n − β + η + 3) , Γ(n − β + η + 3)Γ(n + µ + η + 3)

(n = p, p + 1, . . . ; p ∈ N).

Clearly, the function Θ(n) is decreasing for n and we have that (24)

0 < Θ(n) ≤ Θ(p) =

Γ(p + 3)Γ(p − β + η + 3) , Γ(p − β + 3)Γ(p + µ + η + 3)

p ∈ N.

Thus from (22) - (24), it is easily seen that Γ(2 − β + η) µ,β,η q+2 (q) z 1−β I0,z {z f (z)} = Γ(2 − β)Γ(2 + µ + η) ∞ X n!Γ(n + 3)Γ(n − β + η + 3) n−β+2 + an z (n − q)!Γ(n − β + η + 3)Γ(n + µ + η + 3) n=p ∞ X n!

which completes the proof of Theorem 3. (1,−1)

Theorem 4. Under the hypothesis of Theorem 3, if f (z) ∈ Mp is (1,−1) in the class Mp (q, α), then q!Γ(2 − β + η) µ,β,η q+2 (q) 1−β (25) |z| |I0,z {z f (z)}| − Γ(2 − β)Γ(2 + µ + η) αq!(p + 2)!Γ(p − β + η + 3) ≤ |z|p−β+2 Γ(p − β + η + 3)Γ(p + µ + η + 3)[p + 1 − (−1)q α] for z ∈ U if β ≤ 1 and z ∈ U − {0} if β > 1. The inequalities in (25) are obtained by the function f (z) given by (10) . We can prove Theorem 5 and 6 below in a similar way to those of Theorem 4 by making use of Lemma 2.

The inequalities in (27) are obtained by the function f (z) given by (7) . (1,−1)

Theorem 6. Under the hypothesis of Theorem 3, if f (z) ∈ Mp is (1,−1) in the class Mp (q, α), then q!Γ(2 − β + η) µ,β,η q+2 (q) 1−β |z| |J0,z {z f (z)}| − Γ(2 − β)Γ(2 − µ + η) αq!(p + 2)!Γ(p − β + η + 3) (28) ≤ |z|p−β+2 Γ(p − β + 3)Γ(p − µ + η + 3)[p + 1 − (−1)q α] for z ∈ U if β ≤ 1 and z ∈ U − {0} if β > 1. The inequalities in (28) are obtained by the function f (z) given by (10). Taking β = µ in Theorem 5 and 6, we obtain (1,1)

Corollary 3. If f (z) ∈ Mp µ q+2 (q) |Dz {z f (z)}| − (29)

for z ∈ U and 0 ≤ µ < 1. The equalities in (29) are attained by the function f (z) given by (7). (1,−1)

for z ∈ U and 0 ≤ µ < 1. The inequalities in (30) are obtained by the function f (z) given by (10). Taking µ = 0 in corollaries 3 and 4 (or β = µ = 0) in Theorems 5 and 6, we obtain (1,1)

Corollary 5. If f (z) ∈ Mp (q; α), then (31) (q) αq! |f (z)| − q!|z|−q−1 ≤ |z|p−q [p + 1 − (−1)q α]

(z ∈ D; p ∈ N, p ≥ q; q ∈ N0 )

The result is sharp for the function f (z) given by (7). (1,−1)

Corollary 6. If f (z) ∈ Mp (q; α), then (q) αq! |f (z)| − q!|z|−q−1 ≤ |z|p−q (32) −q [p + 1 + (−1) α] (z ∈ D; p ∈ N, p ≥ q; q ∈ N0 ). The result is sharp for the function f (z) given by (10). We note that, in their special case q = 0, corollaries 5 and 6 would provide us with the growth properties of functions belonging to the (1,1) (1,−1) classes Mp (q, α), and Mp (q, α), respectively. For q ∈ N0 , these results may be looked as distortion theorems for the classes involved.

4. Meromorphically Starlikeness and Meromorphically (A,B) Convexity of Functions in the Class Mp (q, α) We begin by proving (1,1)

Theorem 7. If f (z) ∈ Mp (q, α), then the function f (z) is meromorphically starlike of order β (0 ≤ β < 1) in |z| < r1 and meromorphically convex of order β (0 ≤ β < 1) in |z| < r2 , where   1 (1 − β)n![n + 1 − (−1)−q α] n+1 (33) r1 = r1 (q; p, α, β) = inf n αq!(n − q)!(n − β + 2) and  (34) r2 = r2 (q; p, α, β) = inf n

S B JOSHI

Each of these results is sharp for the function f (z) given by (35)

f (z) =

1 αq!(n − q)! + zn. z n!(n + 1 − (−1)−q α

Proof. It is sufficient to show that zf 0 (z) − < 1 − β, (36) − 1 f (z)

(0 < |z| < r1 )

and that (37)

zf 00 (z) − < 1 − β, − 2 f 0 (z)

(0 < |z| < r2 )

(1,1)

for a function f (z) ∈ Mp (q, α), where r1 and r2 are defined by (33) and (34), respectively. The details involved are fairly straightforward and may be omitted.  The derivations of Theorem 7 can be applied mutates mutandis in (1,−1) order to obtain the following theorem for the class Mp (q, α). (1,−1)

Theorem 8. If f (z) ∈ Mp (q, α), then the function f (z) is meromorphically starlike of order δ (0 ≤ δ < 1) in |z| < r3 and meromorphically convex of order δ (0 ≤ δ < 1) in |z| < r4 , where   1 (1 − δ)n![n + 1 − (−1)−q α] n+1 (38) r3 = r3 (q; p, α, δ) = inf n αq!(n − q)!(n − δ + 2) and  (39) r4 = r4 (q; p, α, δ) = inf n

(1 − δ)(n − 1)![n + 1 − (−1)−q α] αq!(n − q)!(n − δ + 2)

1  n+1

n > p ≥ q; p ∈ N; q ∈ N0 ). Each of these results is sharp for the function f (z) given by (40)

f (z) =

1 αq!(n − q)! − zn. z n![(n + 1 − (−1)−q α]

We note that, meromorphically starlike and meromorphically convexity of functions belonging to several simpler classes can be deducted by suitably choosing the parameter occurring in Theorem 7 to Theorem 8 above.
