Theory and Modern Applications

Inclusion relations for Bessel functions for domains bounded by conical domains

Abstract

In recent times, applications of Bessel differential equations have been effectively used in the theory of univalent functions. In this paper we study some subclasses of k-starlike functions, k-uniformly convex functions, and quasi-convex functions involving the Bessel function and derive their inclusion relationships. Further, certain integral preserving properties are also established with these classes. We remark here that k-starlike functions and k-uniformly convex functions are related to domains bounded by conical sections.

1 Introduction

Let us consider the following second-order linear homogeneous differential equation (see for details [1] and [2]):

z 2 ω (z)+bz ω (z)+ [ c z 2 u 2 + ( 1 b ) u ] ω(z)=0(u,b,cC).
(1.1)

The function ω u , b , c (z), which is called the generalized Bessel function of the first kind of order u, it is defined as a particular solution of (1.1). The function ω u , b , c (z) has the familiar representation as

ω u , b , c (z)= n = 0 ( c ) n n ! Γ ( u + n + b + 1 2 ) ( z 2 ) 2 n + u (zC).
(1.2)

Here Γ stands for the Euler gamma function. The series (1.2) permits the study of Bessel, modified Bessel, and spherical Bessel function altogether. It is worth mentioning that, in particular:

  1. (1)

    For b=c=1 in (1.2), we obtain the familiar Bessel function of the first kind of order u defined by

    J u (z)= n = 0 ( 1 ) n n ! Γ ( u + n + 1 ) ( z 2 ) 2 n + u (zC).
    (1.3)
  2. (2)

    For b=1 and c=1 in (1.2), we obtain the modified Bessel function of the first kind of order u defined by

    I u (z)= n = 0 1 n ! Γ ( u + n + 1 ) ( z 2 ) 2 n + u (zC).
    (1.4)
  3. (3)

    For b=2 and c=1 in (1.2), the function ω u , b , c (z) reduces to 2 π j u (z) where j u is the spherical Bessel function of the first kind of order u, defined by

    j u (z)= π 2 n = 0 ( 1 ) n n ! Γ ( u + n + 3 2 ) ( z 2 ) 2 n + u (zC).
    (1.5)

In [3], the author considered the function φ u , b , c (z) defined, in terms of the generalized Bessel function ω u , b , c (z). From (1.2), it is clear that ω(0)=0. Therefore, it follows from (1.2)

ω u , b , c (z)= [ 2 u Γ ( u + b + 1 2 ) ] 1 z u n = 0 ( c 4 ) n n ! Γ ( u + n + b + 1 2 ) z 2 n ,zC.
(1.6)

Let us set

φ u , b , c (z)= n = 0 b n z n ,

where

b n = ( c 4 ) n n ! Γ ( u + n + b + 1 2 ) .

Hence, (1.6) becomes

ω u , b , c (z)= [ 2 u Γ ( u + b + 1 2 ) ] 1 z u φ u , b , c ( z 2 ) .
(1.7)

By using the well-known Pochhammer symbol (or the shifted factorial) ( λ ) μ defined, for λ,μC and in terms of the Euler Γ function, by

ω u , b , c ( z ) = [ 2 u Γ ( u + b + 1 2 ) ] 1 z u φ u , b , c ( z 2 ) , ( λ ) μ : = Γ ( λ + μ ) Γ ( λ ) = { 1 ( μ = 0 ; λ C { 0 } ) , λ ( λ + 1 ) ( λ + n 1 ) ( μ = n N ; λ C ) ,
(1.8)

where it is being understood conventionally that ( 0 ) 0 =1. Therefore, we obtain the following series representation for the function φ u , b , c (z) given by (1.6):

φ u , b , c (z)=z+ n = 1 ( c ) n z n + 1 4 n ( κ ) n n ! (zC),
(1.9)

where κ=u+ b + 1 2 Z 0 , N={1,2,} and Z 0 ={0,1,2,}, and therefore

φ u , b , c (z)=z+ n = 2 ( c / 4 ) n 1 z n ( κ ) n 1 ( n 1 ) ! ( κ : = u + b + 1 2 Z 0 ) ,
(1.10)

where N:={1,2,3,} and Z 0 :={0,1,2,}. The function φ u , b , c is called the generalized and ‘normalized’ Bessel function of the first kind of order u. We note that by the ratio test, the radius of convergence of the series φ u , b , c (z) is infinity. Moreover, the function φ u , b , c is analytic in and satisfies the differential equation 4 z 2 φ (z)+4κz φ (z)+czφ(z)=0. For convenience, we write φ κ , c (z)= φ u , b , c (z). Let A denote the class of functions of the form

f(z)=z+ n = 2 a n z n ,
(1.11)

which are analytic in the open unit disk U={zU:|z|<1}. Let S be the subclass of A consisting of univalent functions in U with the normalized condition f(0)=0= f (0)1. A function fA is said to be starlike of order η if it satisfies ( z f ( z ) f ( z ) )>η (zU) for some η (0η<1) and we denote the class of functions which are starlike of order η in U as S ( η ) . Also, a function fA is said to be convex of order η if it satisfies (1+ z f ( z ) f ( z ) )>η (zU) for some η (0η<1) and we denote by C ( η ) the class of all convex functions of order η in U. It follows by the Alexander relation that fC(η)z f S (η). The classes S ( η ) and C(η) were introduced by Robertson [4] (see also Srivastava and Owa [5]). Let fA and g S (η). Then f is said to be close to convex of order γ and type η if and only if ( z f ( z ) g ( z ) )>γ (zU) where 0γ<1 and 0η<1. The classes K(γ,η) were introduced by Libera [6] (see also Noor and Al-Kharsani [7], Silverman [8] and Shanmugam and Ramachandran [9]). Furthermore, we denote by k-UCV and k-ST (0k<), two interesting subclasses of S consisting, respectively, of functions which are k-uniformly convex and k-starlike in U defined for 0k< by

k-UCV:= { f S : ( 1 + z f ( z ) f ( z ) ) > k | z f ( z ) f ( z ) | ( z U ) }

and

k-ST:= { f S : ( z f ( z ) f ( z ) ) > k | z f ( z ) f ( z ) 1 | ( z U ) } .

The class k-UCV was introduced by Kanas and Wiśniowska in [10], where its geometric definition and connections with the conic domains were considered. The class k-ST was investigated in [11]. In fact, it is related to the class k-UCV by means of the well-known Alexander equivalence between the usual classes of convex and starlike functions (see also the work of Kanas and Srivastava [12] for further developments involving each of the classes k-UCV and k-ST). In particular, when k=1, we obtain k-UCVUCV and k-ST=SP, where UCV and SP are the familiar classes of uniformly convex functions and parabolic starlike functions in U, respectively. We remark here that the classes k-UCVUCV and k-ST=SP are related to the domain bounded by conical sections. Motivated by works of Kanas and Wiśniowska [10] and [11], Al-Kharsani and Al-Hajiry [13] introduced the classes k-uniformly convex functions and k-starlike functions of order η (0η<1) as below:

k-UCV(η):= { f S : ( 1 + z f ( z ) f ( z ) η ) > k | z f ( z ) f ( z ) | ( z U ) }
(1.12)

and

k-ST(η):= { f S : ( z f ( z ) f ( z ) η ) > k | z f ( z ) f ( z ) 1 | ( z U ) } .
(1.13)

In the case when k=0 the inequalities (1.12) and (1.13) reduce to the well-known classes of starlike and convex functions of order η, respectively. Further, as mentioned earlier, for the special choices of η=0 and k=1 the class k-UCV(η) reduces to the class of uniformly convex functions introduced by Goodman [14] and the class k-UCV(η) reduces to the class of parabolic starlike functions studied extensively by Rønning [15] (see also the work of Ma and Minda [16]). If f and g are analytic in U, then we say that the function f is subordinate to g, if there exists a Schwarz function w(z), analytic in U with w(0)=0 and |w(z)|<1 (zU), such that f(z)=g(w(z)) (zU). We denote this subordination by fg or f(z)g(z) (zU). In view of the earlier works studied by Kanas and Kanas et al. [1012, 1722], Sim et al. [23] and Al-Kharsani [24] defined the domain Ω k , η for 0k< as

Ω k , η = { u + i v : ( u η ) 2 > k 2 ( u 1 ) 2 + k 2 v 2 } .

Note that, for 0<k<1,

Ω k , η = { u + i v : ( u + k 2 η 1 k 2 k ( 1 η 1 k 2 ) ) 2 ( v 1 η 1 k 2 ) 2 > 1 } ,

for k>1,

Ω k , η = { u + i v : ( u + k 2 η k 2 1 k ( 1 η k 2 1 ) ) 2 + ( v 1 η k 2 1 ) 2 < 1 } .

The explicit form of the extremal function that maps U onto the conic domain Ω k , η is given by

Q k , η (z)= { 1 + ( 1 2 η ) z 1 z k = 0 , 1 + 2 ( 1 η ) π 2 log 2 ( 1 + z 1 z ) , k = 1 , 1 + 2 ( 1 η ) 1 k 2 sinh 2 ( A ( k ) arctanh z ) , 0 < k < 1 , ( 1 η ) k 2 1 sin 2 ( π 2 κ ( t ) F ( z t , t ) ) + k 2 η k 2 1 , k > 1 ,

where A(k)= 2 π arccosk, F(ω,t) is the Legendre elliptic integral of the first kind

F(ω,t)= 0 ω d x 1 x 2 1 t 2 x 2 ,κ(t)=F(1,t)

and t(0,1) is chosen such that k=cosh π κ ( t ) 4 κ ( t ) . In view of the definition of subordination and the extremal function Q k , η (z),

fk-ST(η) z f ( z ) f ( z ) Q k , η (z)
(1.14)

and

fk-UCV(η)1+ z f ( z ) f ( z ) Q k , η (z).
(1.15)

Therefore,

( p ( z ) ) > ( Q k , η ( z ) ) > k + η k + 1 .
(1.16)

Define UCC(k,η,β) as the family of functions fA such that

z f ( z ) g ( z ) Q k , η (z)for some g(z)k-ST(β)(0β<1).
(1.17)

Similarly, we define UQC(k,η,β) as the family of functions fA such that

( z f ( z ) ) g ( z ) Q k , η (z)for some g(z)k-UCV(β)(0β<1).
(1.18)

We note that UCC(0,η,β) is the class of close to convex univalent functions of order η and type β and UQC(0,η,β) is the class of quasi-convex univalent functions of order η and type β. For fA given by (1.11) and g(z) given by g(z)=z+ n = 1 b n + 1 z n + 1 , the Hadamard product (or convolution) of f(z) and g(z) is given by

(fg)(z)=z+ n = 1 a n + 1 b n + 1 z n + 1 =(gf)(z)(zU).

Note that fgA. For α j C (j=1,2,,q) and β j C Z 0 (j=1,2,,s), the generalized hypergeometric function F s q ( α 1 , α 2 ,, α q ; β 1 , β 2 ,, β s ;z) is defined by the following infinite series (see the work of [25] and [26] for details):

F s q ( α 1 , α 2 ,, α q ; β 1 , β 2 ,, β s ;z)= n = 0 ( α 1 ) n ( α q ) n z n ( β 1 ) n ( β s ) n n !

(qs+1; q,s N 0 =N{0}). Dziok and Srivastava [27] (also see [28]) considered the linear operator

H( α 1 , α 2 ,, α q ; β 1 , β 2 ,, β s ):AA

defined by the Hadamard product

H( α 1 , α 2 ,, α q ; β 1 , β 2 ,, β s )f(z)= z q F s ( α 1 , α 2 ,, α q ; β 1 , β 2 ,, β s ;z)f(z)
(1.19)

(qs+1; q,s N 0 =N{0}, zU). If fA is given by (1.11), then we have

H( α 1 , α 2 ,, α q ; β 1 , β 2 ,, β s )f(z)=z+ n = 1 ( α 1 ) n ( α q ) n ( β 1 ) n ( β s ) n 1 n ! a n + 1 z n + 1 (zU).

Now, by using the above idea of Dziok and Srivastava [27], Deniz [2] introduced the B κ c -operator as follows:

B κ c f(z)= φ κ , c f(z)=z+ n = 1 ( c ) n a n + 1 z n + 1 4 n ( κ ) n n ! .
(1.20)

It easy to verify from the definition (1.20) that

z [ B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ] =κ B κ c f(z)(κ1) B κ + 1 c f(z),
(1.21)

where κ=u+ b + 1 2 Z 0 . In fact, the function B κ c given by (1.20) is an elementary transformation of the generalized hypergeometric function. That is, it is easy to see that B κ c f(z)= z 0 F 1 (κ; c 4 z)f(z) and also φ κ , c ( c 4 z)= z 0 F 1 (κ;z). In special cases of the B κ c -operator we obtain the following operators related to the Bessel function:

  1. (1)

    Choosing b=c=1 in (1.20) or (1.21), we obtain the operator J u :AA related with Bessel function, defined by

    J u f ( z ) = φ u , 1 , 1 ( z ) f ( z ) = [ 2 u Γ ( u + 1 ) z 1 u 2 J u ( z ) ] f ( z ) = z + n = 1 ( 1 ) n a n + 1 z n + 1 4 n ( u + 1 ) n n !
    (1.22)

and its recursive relation

z [ J u + 1 f ( z ) ] =(u+1) J u f(z)u J u + 1 f(z).
  1. (2)

    Choosing b=1 and c=1 in (1.20) or (1.21), we obtain the operator I u :AA related with the modified Bessel function, defined by

    I u f ( z ) = φ u , 1 , 1 ( z ) f ( z ) = [ 2 u Γ ( u + 1 ) z 1 u 2 I u ( z ) ] f ( z ) = z + n = 1 a n + 1 z n + 1 4 n ( u + 1 ) n n !
    (1.23)

and its recursive relation

z [ I u + 1 f ( z ) ] =(u+1) I u f(z)u I u + 1 f(z).
  1. (3)

    Choosing b=2 and c=1 in (1.20) or (1.21), we obtain the operator S u :AA related with the spherical Bessel function, defined by

    S u f(z)= [ π 1 2 2 u + 1 2 Γ ( u + 3 2 ) z 1 u 2 J u ( z ) ] f(z)=z+ n = 1 ( 1 ) n a n + 1 z n + 1 4 n ( u + 3 2 ) n n !
    (1.24)

and its recursive relation

z [ S u + 1 f ( z ) ] = ( u + 3 2 ) S u f(z) ( u + 1 2 ) S u + 1 f(z).

Finally we recall the generalized Bernardi-Libera-Livingston integral operator, which is defined by

L γ (f)= L γ ( f ( z ) ) = γ + 1 z γ 0 z t γ 1 f(t)dt,γ>1.

2 Preliminaries

In proving our main results, we need the following lemmas.

Lemma 2.1 [29]

Let h be convex univalent in U with h(0)=1 and (νh(z)+μ)>0 (ν,μC). If p is analytic in U with p(0)=1 then

p(z)+ z p ( z ) ν p ( z ) + μ h(z)(zU)p(z)h(z)(zU).
(2.1)

Lemma 2.2 [30]

Let h be convex in the open unit disk U and let E0. Suppose B(z) (zU) is analytic in U with (B(z))>0. If g(z) is analytic in U and h(0)=g(0). Then

E z 2 g (z)+B(z)g(z)h(z)g(z)h(z).
(2.2)

3 Main results

We study certain inclusion relationships for some subclasses of k-starlike functions, k-uniformly convex functions, and quasi-convex functions involving the Bessel equation. We reiterate that these classes of k-starlike functions and k-uniformly convex functions are related to domains bounded by conical sections.

Theorem 3.1 Let c1, and h be convex univalent in U with h(0)=1 and (h(z))>0. If a function fA satisfies the condition

1 1 η [ z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) B κ c f ( z ) η ] h(z)(0η<1;zU),
(3.1)

then

1 1 η [ z ( B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) η ] h(z)(0η<1;zU).
(3.2)

Proof Let

p(z)= 1 1 η [ z ( B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) η ] (zU),
(3.3)

where p is an analytic function in U with p(0)=1. By using (1.21), we get

(1η)p(z)+η=κ z B κ c f ( z ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) (κ1).

Differentiating logarithmically with respect to z and multiplying by z, we obtain

p(z)+ z p ( z ) ( 1 η ) p ( z ) + η + κ 1 = 1 1 η [ z B κ c f ( z ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) η ] .

The proof of the theorem follows now by an application of Lemma 2.1. □

Theorem 3.2 Let fA. If B κ c f(z)k-ST(η), then B κ + 1 c f(z)k-ST(η).

Proof Let

s(z)= z ( B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) .

From (1.21), we can write

κ B κ c f ( z ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) =s(z)+κ1.

Taking logarithmic differentiation and multiplying by z, we get

z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) B κ c f ( z ) =s(z)+ z s ( z ) s ( z ) + κ 1 Q k , η (z).

Since Q k , η (z) is convex univalent in U and

( Q k , η ( z ) ) > k + η k + 1 ,

the proof of the theorem follows by Theorem 3.1 and condition (1.14). □

Theorem 3.3 Let fA. If B κ c f(z)k-UCV(η), then B κ + 1 c f(z)k-UCV(η).

Proof By virtue of (1.12), (1.13), and Theorem 3.2, we obtain

B κ c f ( z ) k - UCV ( η ) z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) k - ST ( η ) B κ c z f ( z ) k - ST ( η ) B κ + 1 c z f ( z ) k - ST ( η ) B κ + 1 c f ( z ) k - UCV ( η )

and hence the proof is complete. □

Theorem 3.4 Let fA. If B κ c f(z)UCC(k,η,β), then B κ + 1 c f(z)UCC(k,η,β).

Proof Since

B κ c f ( z ) UCC ( k , η , β ) , z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) k ( z ) Q k , η ( z ) for some  k ( z ) k - ST ( β ) .

For g(z) such that B κ c g(z)=k(z) we have

z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) B κ c g ( z ) Q k , η (z).
(3.4)

Letting

h(z)= z ( B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) andH(z)= z ( B κ + 1 c g ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) .

We observe that h(z) and H(z) are analytic in U and h(0)=H(0)=1.

Now, by Theorem 3.2,

B κ + 1 c g(z)k-ST(β)and ( H ( z ) ) > k + β k + 1 .

Also note that

z ( B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ) = ( B κ + 1 c g ( z ) ) h(z).
(3.5)

Differentiating both sides of (3.5), we obtain

z ( z ( B κ + 1 c f ( z ) ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) =z ( B κ + 1 c g ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) h(z)+z h (z)=H(z)h(z)+z h (z).
(3.6)

Now using the identity (1.21), we obtain

z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) B κ c g ( z ) = B κ c ( z f ( z ) ) B κ c g ( z ) = z ( B κ + 1 c z f ( z ) ) + ( κ 1 ) B κ + 1 c ( z f ( z ) ) z ( B κ + 1 c g ( z ) ) + ( κ 1 ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) = z ( B κ + 1 c z f ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) + ( κ 1 ) B κ + 1 c ( z f ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) z ( B κ + 1 c g ( z ) ) B κ + 1 c g ( z ) + κ 1 = h ( z ) + z h ( z ) H ( z ) + κ 1 .
(3.7)

From (3.4), (3.6), and the above equation, we conclude that

h(z)+ z h ( z ) H ( z ) + κ 1 Q k , η (z).

On letting E=0 and B(z)= 1 H ( z ) + κ 1 , we obtain

( B ( z ) ) = ( H ( z ) + κ 1 ) | H ( z ) + κ 1 | 2 >0

and the above inequality satisfies the conditions required by Lemma 2.2. Hence

h(z) Q k , η (z)

and so the proof is complete. □

Using a similar argument to Theorem 3.4, we can prove the following theorem.

Theorem 3.5 Let fA. If B κ c f(z)UQC(k,η,β), then B κ + 1 c f(z)UQC(k,η,β).

Now we examine the closure properties of the integral operator L γ .

Theorem 3.6 Let γ> k + η k + 1 . If B κ c k-ST(η) so is L γ ( B κ c ).

Proof From the definition of L γ (f) and the linearity of the operator B κ c we have

z ( B κ c L γ ( f ) ) =(γ+1) B κ c f(z)γ B κ c L γ (f).
(3.8)

Substituting z ( B κ c L γ ( f ( z ) ) ) B κ c v L γ ( f ( z ) ) =p(z) in (3.8) we may write

p(z)=(γ+1) B κ c f ( z ) B κ c L γ ( f ( z ) ) γ.
(3.9)

On differentiating (3.9) we get

z ( B κ c ( f ( z ) ) ) B κ c ( f ( z ) ) = z ( B κ c L γ f ( z ) ) B κ c L γ ( f ( z ) ) + z p ( z ) p ( z ) + γ =p(z)+ z p ( z ) p ( z ) + γ .

By Lemma 2.1, we have p(z)Q(k,η), since (Q(k,η)+γ)>0. This completes the proof of Theorem 3.6. □

By a similar argument we can prove Theorem 3.7 as below.

Theorem 3.7 Let γ> k + η k + 1 . If B κ c k-UCV(η) so is L γ ( B κ c ).

Theorem 3.8 Let γ> k + η k + 1 . If B κ c UCC(k,η,β) so is L γ ( B κ c ).

Proof By definition, there exists a function

K(z)= B κ c g(z)k-ST(η),

so that

z ( B κ c ( f ( z ) ) ) B κ c ( g ( z ) ) Q k , η (z)(zU).
(3.10)

Now from (3.8) we have

z ( B κ c f ) B κ c ( g ( z ) ) = z ( B κ c L γ ( z f ) ) + γ B κ c L γ ( z f ( z ) ) z ( B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) ) + γ B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) = z ( B κ c ( z f ( z ) ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) + γ B κ c ( z f ( z ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) z ( B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) + γ .
(3.11)

Since B κ c gk-ST(η), by Theorem 3.6, we have L γ ( B κ c g)k-ST(η). Taking z ( B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ) =H(z), we note that (H(z))> k + η k + 1 . Now for h(z)= z ( B κ c L γ ( f ( z ) ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) we obtain

z ( B κ c L γ ( f ( z ) ) ) =h(z) B κ c L γ ( g ( z ) ) .
(3.12)

Differentiating both sides of (3.12) yields

z ( B κ c ( z L γ ( f ) ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ) = z h ( z ) + h ( z ) z ( B κ c L γ ( g ) ) B κ c L γ ( g ) = z h ( z ) + H ( z ) h ( z ) .
(3.13)

Therefore from (3.11) and (3.13) we obtain

z ( B κ c f ( z ) ) B κ c g = z h ( z ) + H ( z ) h ( z ) + γ h ( z ) H ( z ) + γ .
(3.14)

This in conjunction with (3.10) leads to

h(z)+ z h ( z ) H ( z ) + γ Q(k,η)(z).
(3.15)

Let us take B(z)= 1 H ( z ) + γ in (3.15) and observe that (B(z))>0 as γ> k + η k + 1 . Now for A=0 and B as described we conclude the proof since the required conditions of Lemma 2.2 are satisfied. □

A similar argument yields the following.

Theorem 3.9 Let γ> k + η k + 1 . If B κ c UQC(k,η,β) so is L γ ( B κ c ).

4 Concluding remarks

As observed earlier when B κ c was defined, all the results discussed can easily be stated for the convolution operators J u f(z), I u f(z), and S u f(z), which are defined by (1.22), (1.23), and (1.24), respectively. However, we leave those results to the interested readers.
