We study some generalized integral operators for the classes of p-valent functions with bounded radius and boundary rotation. Our work generalizes many previously known results. Many of our results are best possible.
1. Introduction
LetApdenote the class of functions of the form
fz zp
∞
np1
anzn, p∈N{1,2, . . .}, 1.1
which are analytic in the open unit discU{z:|z|<1}.
Letfandgbe analytic functions inUwe say thatfis subordinate tog, written as
f ≺g; 1.2
if there exists a Schwarz functionwzinU, withw0 0 and|wz|<1z∈U, such that
In particular, whengis univalent, then the above subordination is equivalent to
f0 0, fU⊆gU. 1.4
For functionsf, g∈Ap, given by

anzn, gz zp

Janowski1defined the classPA, Bas follows.
Lethbe a function, analytic inU, withh0 1. Thenhis said to belong to the class
PA, B,−1≤B < A≤1, if and only if, forz∈U,
hz 1Awz
1Bwz, wherewzis a Schwarz function. 1.7
Or equivalently, we can say thath∈PA, B,−1≤B < A≤1, if and only if,
hz≺ 1Az
1Bz, z∈U. 1.8
Geometrically,hzis in the classPA, B, if and only if,h0 1 and the image ofhUlies inside the open disc centered on the real axis with diameter end points,
D1h−1 1−A

ClearlyPA, B⊂P1−A/1−B.
In the recent paper, Noor2introduced the classPkα. We define it as follows. Let
Pkα,0≤α < p, be the class of functionspzwithp0 1 and satisfying the property
pz 1
2
2π
0
1 1−2αze−it
1−ze−it dμt, 1.10
whereμtis a real-valued function of bounded variation on0,2πand02πdμt 2 and
2π
The classesVkαandRkαare related to the classPkαand can be defined as
f∈Vkα, iff
zfz
pfz ∈Pkα, z∈U,
f∈Rkα, iff
zfz
pfz ∈Pkα, z∈U.
1.11
We define a classPkA, Bas follows.
LetPkA, B,k≥2,−1≤B < A≤1, denote the class ofp-valent analytic functionshz that are represented by
hz
k
4
1 2
h1z−
k
4 − 1 2
h2z, z∈U, 1.12
whereh1, h2 ∈PA, B. ForA1−2α0 ≤α < pandB −1,it reduces to the classPkα andP2α Pαis the class ofp-valent analytic functions hzwith Rehz > α,z ∈ U.
TakingA 1,B −1, andp 1, we havePk1,−1 Pk see3, andP21,−1 P is the
class of functions with positive real part.
Definition 1.1. A functionf,analytic inU, and given by1.1is said to be in the classRkA, B;
−1≤B < A≤1,k≥2, if and only if,
zfz
pfz ∈PkA, B, z∈U. 1.13
Forp1,RkA, Bis introduced and studied by Noor4. We note that
RkA, B⊂Rk
1−A
1−B
⊂Rk, 1.14
whereRkis the class of functions with bounded radius rotationsee5. Fork2, we have
R2A, B≡S∗pA, B⊂S∗p
1−A
1−B
⊂S∗p, 1.15
whereS∗pis the class ofp-valent starlike functions. Similarly, we can define the classVkA, B as follows.
Definition 1.2. A functionf,analytic inU, and given by1.1is said to be in the classVkA, B;
−1≤B < A≤1,k≥2, if and only if,
zfz
It is clear that
f ∈VkA, B, iff
zfz
p ∈RkA, B, z∈U. 1.17
Forp1,VkA, Bis the class introduced and studied by Noor4. It is easy to see that,
VkA, B⊂Vk
1−A
1−B
⊂Vk, 1.18
whereVkis the class of functions with bounded boundary rotation see5. Also
V2A, B≡CpA, B⊂Cp
1−A
1−B
⊂Cp, 1.19
whereCpis the class ofp-valent convex functions.
Very recently, Frasin6, introduced the following general integral operators forp -valent functions,

Clearly, we may see that forp1, these operators become the general integral operators
F1z Fnz, G1z Fα1,α2,...,αnz, 1.22
introduced and studied by Breaz and Breaz7and Breaz et al.8,see also9,10. Forp n 1,α1 α∈0,1in1.20, we obtain the integral operator

studied in11 and forp n 1,α1 δ ∈ C,|δ| < 1/4 in1.21, we obtain the integral
operator0zftδdt, studied in12.
2. Main Results
Lemma 2.1. Letβ >0,βγ >0,α∈α0,1, withα0max{β−γ−1/2β,−γ/β}. If

2F1 denotes the Gauss hypergeometric function. From 2.2, we can deduce the sharp result p ∈
Pρ,whereρis defined in2.4. This result is a special case of one given in [11].
Proof. To prove this Lemma we use Theorem 3.2j of 11, page 97. Take hz 1 1 −
2αz/1−z, 0≤α <1 and
Hz βhz γ abz
1−z , 2.5
whereaβγandbβ1−2α γ.
SinceHis convex to apply Theorem 3.2j of11, page 97we only need to determine condition ReHz>0.
The range of |z| ≤ 1 under Hz is a half plane. In order to satisfy the required condition this half plane needs to lie in the right half plane. This requirement will be satisfied if ReH−1 ReHiand ReH0>ReH−1≥0. Or we can write it as
β1−α>0, βαγ≥0. 2.6
When β > 0,βγ > 0, these conditions imply thatα ∈ −γ/β,1, and ifβγ > 1, then
α∈β−γ−1/2β,1. Hence all the conditions of Theorem 3.2j of11, page 97are satisfied forα∈α0,1,withα0max{β−γ−1/2β,−γ/β}, thus we have the required result.
To show that the solution Qz can be represented in terms of hypergeometric functions we takeA1−2α,B−1,n1 in Theorem 3.3d of11, page 109.
Lemma 2.2. Letf ∈Vkα, 0≤α < p,k≥2.Thenf ∈RkρinU, where

This result is sharp.

By usingLemma 2.1forβ pandγ 0, we deduce thathi ∈ Pρ,whereρis given in
2.7. This estimate is best possible because of the best dominant property of functionQz, where

Forp1,we have the sharp result proved in14. We begin with the following theorem.
Theorem 2.3. iLetαi>0,fi∈RkA, Bfor alli1,2, . . . , n, and,ni1αi1. Then the integral

This proves the result.
Substitutingp1, inTheorem 2.3i, we have the following corollary.
Corollary 2.4. Letαi >0,fi ∈RkA, Bfor alli1,2, . . . , n,−1 ≤B < A ≤1,k ≥ 2. Then the
integral operatorFp∈VkA, BinU.
Remark 2.5. Lettingα1α,α2β, andn2 inCorollary 2.4, we obtain a result due to Noor
Forn1,α1α1, andf1finTheorem 2.3i, we have the following.
Corollary 2.6. Letf ∈ RkA, B in U, −1 ≤ B < A ≤ 1, k ≥ 2. Then the integral operator

Proof (ii). TakingA1−2α,B−1, withα 1−A/1−B, we have for alli1,2, . . . , n,
fi∈Rk1−2α,−1 Rkα, 2.21
using partiofTheorem 2.3, we have
Fp∈Vk1−2α,−1 Vkα inU. 2.22
Now usingLemma 2.2forFp∈Vkα,α 1−A/1−Bimplies that
Fp∈Rk

The sharpness of the result is clear from the functionQzdefined by2.14.
Forp1, we have the following corollary.
Corollary 2.7. Letαi>0,fi∈Rkαfor alli1,2, . . . , n, withα 1−A/1−BandA1−2α,
