Abstract

which are analytic in the open unit diskU={z∈C:|z|<1}, and S ={f ∈ A:f is univalent in U}.
Forf ∈ A, Al-Oboudi [1] introduced the following operator:
(2) D0f(z) =f(z),
(3) D1f(z) = (1−δ)f(z) +δzf0(z) =Dδf(z), δ ≥0
(4) Dnf(z) =Dδ(Dn−1f(z)), (n∈N:={1,2,3, . . .}).
Iff is given by (1), then from (3) and (4) we see that (5) Dnf(z) =z+

[1 + (k−1)δ]nakzk, (n∈N0 :=N∪ {0}),
withDnf(0) = 0.
Remark 1 When δ= 1, we get S˘al˘agean’s differential operator [9].
The following results will be required in our investigation.
General Schwarz Lemma. [5] Let the function f be regular in the disk UR={z∈C:|z|< R},with |f(z)|< M for fixed M. If f has one zero with multiplicity order bigger than m for z= 0, then
|f(z)| ≤ M
Rm |z|m (z∈UR).
The equality can hold only if
f(z) =eiθ M Rmzm, where θ is constant.
Theorem A. [7] Let α be a complex number with Reα >0 and f ∈ A. If f satisfies
1− |z|2Reα Reα
¯¯
¯¯zf00(z) f0(z)
¯¯
¯¯≤1 (z∈U),
then, for any complex number β with Reβ ≥Reα, the integral operator
Fβ(z) =
½ β
Z z

tβ−1f0(t)dt

β
is in the class S.
Theorem B.[6] Let f ∈ Asatisfy the following inequality:
(6)
¯¯
¯¯z2f0(z) (f(z))2 −1
¯¯
¯¯≤1 (z∈U).
Then f is univalent in U.
Theorem C. [8] Assume that g ∈ A satisfies condition (6), and let α be a complex number with
|α−1| ≤ Reα 3 . If
|g(z)| ≤1, ∀z∈U then the function
(7) Gα(z) =
½ α
Z z
0
(g(t))α−1dt

is of class S.
In [2], Breaz and Breaz considered the integral operator (8) Gn,α(z) :=

(g1(t))α−1· · ·(gn(t))α−1dt

(g1, . . . , gn∈ A), and proved that the functionGn,α is univalent inU.
Remark 2 Note that for n = 1, we obtain the integral operator Gα defined by (7).
Theorem D. [3] Let gi ∈ A, ∀i= 1, . . . , n, n∈N, satisfy the properties
¯¯
¯¯z2gi0(z) (gi(z))2 −1
¯¯
¯¯<1, ∀z∈U, ∀i= 1, . . . , n
and α∈C with
|α−1| ≤ Reα 3n . If
|gi(z)| ≤1, ∀z∈U, ∀i= 1, . . . , n, then the function Gn,α defined by (8) is univalent.
In [4], the author introduced a new general integral operator by means of the Al-Oboudi differential operator as follows.
Definition 1 [4] Let n ∈ N, m ∈ N0 and α ∈ C. We define the integral operator Gn,m,α by
(9)
Gn,m,α(z) :=
[n(α−1) + 1]
Z z
0
Yn
j=1
(Dmgj(t))α−1dt
1 n(α−1)+1
(z∈U),
where g1, . . . , gn∈ A and Dm is the Al-Oboudi differential operator.
Remark 3 In the special case n= 1, we obtain the integral operator
(10) Gm,α(z) :=
½ α
Z z
0
(Dmg(t))α−1dt

α (z∈U).
Remark 4 If we set m = 0 in (9) and (10), then we obtain the integral operators defined in(8) and (7), respectively.

|α−1| ≤ Reα Pn
j=1(2Mj+ 1), Re(n(α−1) + 1)≥Reα >0.
If
|Dmgj(z)| ≤Mj (z∈U; j∈ {1, . . . , n}),
then the integral operator Gn,m,α defined by (9) is in the univalent function class S.
Proof. Since gj ∈ A (j∈ {1, . . . , n}), by (5), we have Dmgj(z)
z = 1 +
X∞

[1 + (k−1)δ]mak,jzk−1 (m∈N0) and
Dmgj(z) z 6= 0 for all z∈U.
Also we note that

Then we obtain

or equivalently
lnf0(z) = (α−1) Xn

Hence we obtain

From the hypothesis, we have |gj(z)| ≤Mj (j ∈ {1, . . . , n} ;z ∈U), then by the General Schwarz Lemma, we obtain that
|gj(z)| ≤Mj|z| (j∈ {1, . . . , n} ;z∈U).

Corollary 1 Let M ≥ 1, each of the functions gj ∈ A (j ∈ {1, . . . , n}) satisfies the inequality (11) andα ∈C with
|α−1| ≤ Reα
(2M+ 1)n, Re(n(α−1) + 1)≥Reα >0.
If
|Dmgj(z)| ≤M (z∈U; j ∈ {1, . . . , n}),
then the integral operator Gn,m,α defined by (9) is in the univalent function class S.
Proof. In Theorem 1, we consider M1=· · ·=Mn=M.
Corollary 2 Let each of the functions gj ∈ A (j ∈ {1, . . . , n}) satisfies the inequality (11) and α∈C with
|α−1| ≤ Reα
3n , Re(n(α−1) + 1)≥Reα >0.
If
|Dmgj(z)| ≤1 (z∈U; j∈ {1, . . . , n}),
then the integral operator Gn,m,α defined by (9) is in the univalent function class S.
Proof. In Corollary 1, we consider M = 1.
Remark 5 If we set m= 0 in Corollary 2, then we have Theorem D.
Corollary 3 Let the function g ∈ A satisfies the inequality (11) and α ∈ C with
|α−1| ≤ Reα
3 , Reα >0.
If
|Dmg(z)| ≤1 (z∈U),
then the integral operator Gm,α defined by (10) is in the univalent function class S.
Proof. In Corollary 2, we consider n= 1.
Remark 6 If we set m= 0 in Corollary 3, then we have Theorem C.
