Abstract
In the present paper, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for zF(a, b; c; z) and \(z(2-F(a,b;c;z))\) where \(F(a,b;c;z)=\sum \nolimits _{n=0}^{\infty }[(a)_{n}(b)_{n}/(c)_{n}(1)_{n}]z^{n}\) to be in a certain class of analytic functions with negative coefficients. Furthermore, we consider an integral operator related to hypergeometric functions.
