Fournier, Richard On neighbourhoods of univalent starlike functions. (English) Zbl 0631.30008 Ann. Pol. Math. 47, 189-202 (1986). Let A denote the class of analytic functions f in \(E=\{z:| z| <1\}\) and normalized \(f(0)=f'(0)-1=0\). For \(f(z)=z+a_ 2z^ 2+...\in A\) we define the \(\delta\)-neighbourhood of f as \[ N_{\delta}(f)=\{g(z)=z+b_ 2z^ 2+...\in A: \sum^{\infty}_{k=2}k| a_ k-b_ k| \leq \delta \}. \] Let \(B\subset A\). For \(\delta >0\) we define \[ B^{1,\delta}=\{f\in B: (f(z)+\epsilon z)/(1+\epsilon)\in B,\quad | \epsilon | <\delta \}, \]\[ B^{n,\delta}=\{f\in B: f(z)+\epsilon z^ n\in B,\quad | \epsilon | <\delta \},\quad n=2,3,.... \] In this paper some various properties of \(N_{\delta}(f)\), \(B^{n,\delta}\) are studied. In particular some problems raised by Ruscheweyh, Rahman and Stankiewicz are settled. For example it is proved that: Theorem 1. Let \(\delta >0\). Then \(f\in S^{*2,\delta}\Rightarrow\) \(N_{\delta}(f)\subset S^*.\) Theorem 2. Let \(n>2\). Then there is a function \(f\in A\) and a real number \(\delta\), \(0<\delta <1\), such that \(f\in S^{*n,\delta}\) and \(N_{\delta}(f)\not\subset S^*\). Here \(S^*\subset A\) denotes the class of starlike functions.
