## Certain sufficiency conditions on Gaussian hypergeometric functions.(English)Zbl 1126.30010

Let $${\mathcal A}$$ denote the class of functions of the form $f(z)= z+\sum^\infty_{n=2} a_nz^n$ analytic in $$\Delta= \{z: |z|< 1\}$$ and let $$S$$ denote a subclass of $${\mathcal A}$$ that are univalent in $$\Delta$$. Let $$f\in{\mathcal A}$$, $$k\in [0,\infty)$$, $$\alpha\in [0,1)$$. Then we say that $$f\in k\text{-UCV}(\alpha)$$ if and only if
$\operatorname{Re}\Biggl\{1+ {zf''(z)\over f'(z)}\Biggr\}\geq k\Biggl|{zf''(z)\over f'(z)}\Biggr|+ \alpha\quad\text{for }z\in\Delta.$
We put $$k\text{-UCV}:= k\text{-UCV}(0)$$.
The Gaussian hypergeometric function $$f(z)$$ is given by the series $f(z)= zF(a,b; c;z)= z \sum^\infty_{n=0} {(a,n)(b,n)\over (c,n)(1,n)} z^n,$ where $$(a,n)$$ is a Pochhammer symbol.
In this paper some properties of the Gaussian functions are derived. For example it is proved.
Theorem 1. Let $$a$$, $$b$$, $$c$$, $$k$$ be a fixed and such that $$a>-1$$, $$b>-1$$, $$c>a+ b+2$$, $$0\leq k<\infty$$. If ${(a+1)(b+1)\over c+1}\cdot {\Gamma(c- a- b- 1)\Gamma(c+ 1)\over \Gamma(c- a)\Gamma(c- b)}\leq {1\over k+ 2}$ then $$f(z)= zF(a,b;c;z)\in k\text{-UCV}= k\text{-UCV}(0)$$.
Some others similar problems are also investigated.
