One of the authors C^O has obtained some properties of starlike functions f(z) by studying f(z)-/(-z). In this paper we shall show that close-to-convex functions also have the same properties as obtained there for starlike functions.
§ 1. Preliminaries
Lemma 1. Let <j>{z) be convex in \z\<\. If f(z) is analytic and satisfies 3t C/(zW (z)J>0 for \z\<\, then

PROOF. Take two arbitrary points Zi,Zz in |2J<1, and denote by L the image curve of the line-segment
(<1) which encloses L.
Then there exists a positive number a such that

Hence |/GZi)-/(zO-«(*0&WO*i)) '<«! ^(^O-^U)!, that is

and (1.1) is proved.

Kz)-K-z)
Therefore (4(z)-j}(-z) is starlike with respect to the origin in |z|<l in view of the fact that it has an expansion of the form 2<2iZ+ , Oi^fO-
Lemma 3. Let #(?)=«å + be analytic in |c[<l, and let #(c)/r^vO, jf|<l.
If for a positive constant k, ^(c) satisfies
<iargg-(p8^)>-&7r, O<P<1, <Pi<9>2,

then for q=i?<l we have

all equalities being attained by the function sr0(f) =c(l+?)V(l-c)2+t.
PROOF. As shown by Sakaguchi (2T], #(c) has a representation of the form
(1.5) £(O =s(OXOs,
where s(?) is starlike with respect to the origin in [f|<l, and /»(r) has there a positive real part. From (1.5) we easily obtain all the inequalities of this lemma with equality signs appearing for ^0(f) ; C2j, C3j.
Lemma 4. If k^2 or k~\, then under the same assumptions as in Lemma
3 we have for \<;\--=R<k+l-y'k(_k+2)

We may assume without loss of generality that (1.7) holds for |cj^l. Setting
S(f) is starlike with respect to the origin in |f|^l, and from (1.7) it satisfies

The expression in the brackets has the following Taylor expansion in |c|f£l:

where c= 'is{a)/g{ayj/k and

On the other hand from (1.8) we have

Substituting (1.12) for a 1+a in the last inequality, we find a2-b3+b22-a1b2+2(k-l)ea1-2(k-l)eb2+2(k-l')(k-2)e2

Therefore under the assumption that k~2i2 or k=l we have

since \b2'\<2, b22~bj{<l because of the starlikeness of S(f).
Substituting {a~l-\- a-a1+b2)/2k for e in this inequality, we find

which holds also for a=0. Using the left-hand inequality of (1.3) and replacing
<* by c, we have (1.6) for !c|=R<k+\-/k(k+Z).
The statement concerning equality can easily be verified.
§ 2. Properties of close-to-convex functions
Theorem 1. Let f(z)=z+ be analytic in 'z,<ll. A necessary and suff-
icient condition for f(z) to bs close-to-convex in \z\<l is that there exists a convex function <j>(z) defined in |z<i such that
(2.1) SR
/(z) -/(c)
o, |z<i, ;d<i.*0z)-*(O
PROOF. From Lemma1 the necessity is clear. The sufficiency can be shown by making c-^z in (2.1).
Theorem 2. Let f(z)=z+ be close-to-convex in 'z\<\. Then the func- tion F(z)= (/(z)-/(-2)) is close-to-star in jzi<l, and satisfies for.z=r

all equalities being attained by the function fo(z) =z/(l -z)2.
PROOF. From Theorem 1 there exists a convex function jiS(z) defined in 2<1 such that
By Lemma 2, Kz)-^(-2) is starlike with respect to the origin in 2<1. There- fore F{z) is close-to-star in j2<l T5J, and odd. Thus if we set g(<;)=F(Kz)'1,
c=22, then g(c)/?^O, Cj<l, and
«>2

Hence g(c) satisfies (1.2), (1.3), and (1.4) for k=2- These inequalities yield (2.2), (2.4), (2.5), and (2.3) with aid of the relations g(?)=F(z)2, r#'(c)/
g(<;) ~zF(z)/F(z), f=22. The statement concerning equalities can be easily ve- rified.
Theorem 3. Letf^z)=z+a2z2+a3zi+ be close-to-convex in ,2<1. Then
the function F(z)=z+a3z3+ which consists of the odd terms of f(z) is
univalent and starlike with respect to the origin for
(2.6) |2i<-/2-l,
and convex for
(2-7) j2 <-,/6--i/5.
Moreover all the partial sums of F(z) are univalent and starlike with respect to the origin for
(2.8) ]*<l/3,
and convex for
(2.9) 2<l/3/3.
These bounds are all sharp.
PROOF. The bound (2.6) follows at once from (2-5). The bound (2-8) can
be proved by the same argument as used in [[1] by making use of the estimates in Theorem 2 and 'a2»+i!^2«+l; [&}.
Next by Lemma 4 the function g(r) defined in the proof of Theorem 2 satisfies
1+ c£"(0*f(0 c£'(c)g(.e)
-2SO^K+3^)_ R -
W ith aid of the relations 2Cl+r£//(O/£/(O-c£XO/£(c)>=l+2F//(z)/F'(z)-
12 K6ichi Sakaguchi and Shigeyoshi Watanabe
zP(z)/F(z), <g'(c)/g(<)=zFi(zyF(z), <;=z\ and the estimates (2.4), (2.5), this inequality yields for \z\~r<.-i/2-1
(2 10) ^(1+^F%z)\ 1-24^+46^-24^+^
and
(2.ll) z F"(z) <r ^'_s2r'(9-21r?+ 3/+r5)
F {z) (l-O(l-6r3+/) •E
From (2-10) the bound (2.7) follows. The bound (2.9) can be proved by the
same argument as used in £lj bymaking use of (2.10), (2-ll). The sharpness of these four bounds can be easily shown by considering the function fo(z) =z/
(I-*)2.
We here remark that the bounds (2-6) and (2-7) can be extended to more
general functions, in other words the following theorem holds:
Theorem 4. Let a p-fold symmetric function F(z)=z+ap+1zp+1+ be
analytic in \z\<\, and let F(z)/z^0, ]z\<l. Ifforapositive constant k, F(z) satisfies \ JargF(re'9)>-kn, 0<Xl, (9i<^2, th?.i F(z) is univalent and
J«i
starlike with respect to the origin for
and if further pk^2 or pk~1, then FQz) is convex for
!2:<{M-1/M2-1}1^, M=-£{(p+2XPk+l)+Pi/ Kp+4XPk+2)+l ).
These bounds are sharp.
A proof can be given just as in the proof of Theorem 3 by applying Lemmas 3, 4 to the function ^(c)=F(z)p, c=2p which satisfies #(0/f^O, ic,<l, and
[ ^d&rggW^-pknt 0O<l, <Pi<<p2.
The details therefore will be omitted.
