On P-Valently Close-To-Convex, Starlike and Convex Functions

On P-Valently Close-To-Convex, Starlike and Convex Functions

The main object of the present paper is to derive several sufficient conditions for close-to-convexity, starlikeness, and convexity of certain p-valent analytic functions in the unit disk. Some interesting consequences of the main results are also mentioned.
