## Inclusion theorems of convolution operators associated with normalized hypergeometric functions.(English)Zbl 1104.30008

Assume the notations: $$F(a,b,c; z)$$ the Gauss hypergeometric function, $$A$$ – the class of functions analytic on the unit disk $$D$$ and normalized by the conditions $$f(0)= f'(0)- 1= 0$$, $$f*g$$ – the Hadamard convolution. For given $$\beta$$, $$\gamma$$, $$0\leq\gamma< 1$$, $$\beta< 1$$, $P_\gamma(\beta)= \{f\in A:\text{Re}[e^{i\varphi}((1- \gamma)z^{-1} f(z)+\gamma f'(z)- \beta)]\geq 0,\;\varphi\in\mathbb{R},\,z\in D\}.$ The author asked and partially answered the following question. Under what conditions on $$\gamma$$, $$f\in P_\gamma(\beta_1)$$ and $$f\in P_\gamma(\beta_2)$$ implies $$f*g\in P_\gamma(\alpha)$$, for some $$\alpha=\alpha(\beta_1,\beta_2)$$? He also, among other results, gave conditions for $$a$$, $$b$$, $$c$$, $$\beta$$ and $$\gamma$$ under which $$zF(a,b,c; z)$$ is in $$P_\gamma(\beta)$$ or $$zF(a,b,c;z)* f(z)\in{\mathcal H}^\infty$$. Results are given in quite complicated forms. Proofs are highly computational.
