    New Results on Certain Subclasses of Univalent Functions Defined by the nth Derivative of z/f(z)

    by Oqlah Al-Refai, Jamal Salah, Mohammed Ali, Khalifa Al-Shaqsi, Hameed Ur Rehman, Ahmad Al Azab

    For n≥3, we study the subclass Cn of univalent functions f with a2=…=an=0 in which the whole allowance of the Al-Refai–Darus criterion is assigned to the nth derivative of z/f. The map f↦(z/f)(n) is a bijection of Cn onto a closed ball of H∞, which turns extremal problems into problems for bounded analytic functions. We prove sharp growth, distortion, covering-radius and coefficient bounds with the (n+j)-fold symmetric extremal functions z/(1+czn+j); the exact region of (an+1,an+2), whose boundary is attained by Möbius parameters written in closed form; an exact radius for dilations of products f1f2/z, sharp both for Aksentev’s inequality and for univalence. The vanishing of a2,…,an does not by itself imply n-fold symmetry; the n-fold symmetric members of Cn correspond exactly to g(zn) with g in the same ball, which provides the exact region of (an+1,a2n+1). For the larger class defined by a2=0 and the criterion, we obtain sharp bounds as well. The comparison with n-fold symmetric univalent functions records a gap; it is not a sharpening of known results.

    Sharp Estimates and Symmetric Subclasses for Univalent Functions Defined by the nth Derivative of z/f(z)

    by Oqlah Al-Refai, Jamal Salah, Mohammed Ali, Khalifa Al-Shaqsi, Hameed Ur Rehman, Ahmad Al Azab

    The Al-Refai--Darus criterion guarantees univalence of a normalized function \( f \) when a weighted sum of \( |(z/f)^{(k)}(0)| \), \( 2\le k\le n-1 \), and of \( \sup|(z/f)^{(n)}| \) does not exceed \( 1 \). For \( n\ge3 \) we study the subclass \( \mathcal C_n \) with \( a_2=\dots=a_n=0 \), in which the whole allowance goes to the \( n \) th derivative. The map \( f\mapsto(z/f)^{(n)} \) is a bijection of \( \mathcal C_n \) onto a closed ball of \( H^\infty \), which turns extremal problems into problems for bounded analytic functions. We prove sharp growth, distortion, covering-radius and coefficient bounds with the \( (n+j) \)-fold symmetric extremal functions \( z/(1+cz^{n+j}) \); the exact region of \( (a_{n+1},a_{n+2}) \), whose boundary is attained by M\"obius parameters written in closed form; and an exact radius for dilations of products \( f_1f_2/z \), sharp both for Aksentev's inequality and for univalence. The \( n \)-fold symmetric members of \( \mathcal C_n \) correspond to \( g(z^n) \) with \( g \) in the same ball, which gives the exact region of \( (a_{n+1},a_{2n+1}) \). For the larger class defined by \( a_2=0 \) and the criterion we obtain sharp bounds as well. The comparison with \( n \)-fold symmetric univalent functions records a gap; it is not a sharpening of known results.

    Fekete–Szegő and Second Hankel Determinant Problems for a Bounded-Second-Derivative Class of Univalent Functions, and Its Fractional-Derivative Extension

    by Oqlah Al-Refai, Saed J. Al Atawneh, Mohammed Ali, Abdulrahman Alenezi

    Let A denote the class of functions g(z)=z+∑k=2∞akzk analytic and normalized in U={z:|z|<1}, and let D={g∈A:|g″(z)|≤1,z∈U}. We give a short, self-contained proof that D consists entirely of univalent functions by a direct line-integral estimate combined with the classical Noshiro–Warschawski theorem. We then solve, in closed form and with explicit extremal functions, two classical extremal coefficient problems for D: the Fekete–Szegő problem and the second Hankel determinant, using the exact Schur parametrization of bounded analytic functions applied to g″. We also establish a sharp bound on a single coefficient |an| for every n≥2, obtained by an elementary Parseval argument that does not require the full joint Schur parametrization needed for the Fekete–Szegő and Hankel problems. We then compose D with the Owa–Srivastava fractional derivative operator Ωzδ (δ∈[0,1)), used to build fractional bi-univalent subclasses, to define the one-parameter family D(δ)={g∈A:|(Ωzδg)″(z)|≤1}, and extend all three results to D(δ), again with explicit extremal functions. Because the underlying weights grow at different rates in the fractional parameter δ, the Fekete–Szegő problem exhibits a genuine, monotone bifurcation as δ ranges over [0,1), while the Hankel and general-coefficient bounds decrease monotonically—effects that are structural consequences of the fractional operator rather than a simple rescaling of the classical case. All results are verified in two independent numerical ways: the Schur parametrization lemma itself is checked against an explicit, independently constructed rational Schur function whose Taylor coefficients are extracted numerically via the Cauchy integral formula, and the sharp bounds are checked by Monte Carlo maximization over the admissible Schur parameters. Both checks are explained in detail and agree with the closed forms to at least four decimal places. Unlike the Carathéodory class of functions with positive real part, whose coefficient body is fixed at the origin (value 1) and is classically parametrized without an extra recursive step, the Schur class B used here does not pin down φ(0), so its exact coefficient body genuinely requires the two-step recursive Schur parametrization applied below to g″; identifying and exploiting this distinction is part of the technical contribution of the paper.

    Generalized Marcinkiewicz Integral Operators Along Certain Surfaces

    by Mohammed Ali

    In this article, a class of rough generalized Marcinkiewicz operators is considered. Under the condition that the singular kernel belongs to the space Lq(Sn−1), the boundedness of these operators is confirmed from the space of homogeneous Triebel–Lizorkin functions to the Lp(Rd+1) space. Moreover, appropriate Lp bounds are obtained which allow us to utilize Yano’s extrapolation procedure to prove the boundedness of the aforementioned operators under weaker assumptions on the kernels. In this work, several known past results are generalized, extended, and improved.

    In this article, a class of rough generalized Marcinkiewicz operators is considered. Under the condition that the singular kernel belongs to the space Lq(Bs−1), the boundedness of these operators are confirmed from the space of homogeneous Triebel–Lizorkin functions to the Lp(Rd+1) space. Moreover, appropriate Lp bounds are obtained which allow us to utilize Yano’s extrapolation procedure to prove the boundedness of the aforementioned operators under weaker assumptions on the kernels.

    Boundedness of Rough Multiple Oscillatory Singular Integral Operators on Triebel–Lizorkin Space

    by Mohammed Ali, Hussain Al-Qassem

    In this article, we investigate oscillatory singular integral operators on product domains. We establish the boundedness of these operators on Triebel–Lizorkin spaces under weak assumptions on the rough kernel functions. Our results extend several known results from the one-parameter setting to the two-parameter setting.

    Weighted Lp Estimates for Multiple Generalized Marcinkiewicz Functions

    by Mohammed Ali, Hussain Al-Qassem

    In this paper we investigate the weighted Lp boundedness of generalized Marcinkiewicz integrals MK(ε) over multiple symmetric domains. Under the conditions K∈Lq(Sm−1×Sn−1), q>1, we establish suitable weighted Lp bounds for the integrals MK(ε). These bounds are combined with Yano’s extrapolation argument to obtain the weighted Lp boundedness of MK(ε) from the Triebel–Lizorkin space F.p0,ε(ω1,ω2) to the space Lp(ω1,ω2) under the weaker conditions K∈Bq(0,2ε−1)(Sm−1×Sn−1)∪L(logL)2/ε(Sm−1×Sn−1). Our findings are essential improvements and extension of several known findings in the literature.

    Weighted Lp Estimates for Multiple Generalized Marcinkiewicz Functions

    by Mohammed Ali, Hussain Al-Qassem

    In this paper we investigate the weighted $L^p$ boundedness of generalized Marcinkiewicz integrals $\mathcal{M}^{(\varepsilon)}_{\mathbf{K}}$ over multiple symmetric domains. Under the conditions $\mathbf{K}\in L^{q}( \mathbb{B}^{{{m}}-1}\times \mathbb{B}% ^{{{n}}-1})$, $q>1$, we stablish suitable weighted $L^p$ bounds for the integrals $\mathcal{M}^{(\varepsilon)}_{\mathbf{K}}$. These bounds are combined with an extrapolation argument of Yano so we obtain the weighted $L^p$ boundedness of $\mathcal{M}^{(\varepsilon)}_{\mathbf{K}}$ from the Triebel-Lizorkin space $\overset{.}{F}_{p}^{0,\varepsilon}(\omega_1,\omega_2)$ to the space $L^p(\omega_1,\omega_2)$ under the weak conditions $\mathbf{K}$ lie in the space $ B_q^{(0,\frac{2}{\varepsilon}-1)}(\mathbb{B}^{m-1}\times\mathbb{B}% ^{n-1})$ or in the space $L(\log L)^{2/\varepsilon}(\mathbb{B}^{m-1}\times\mathbb{B}% ^{n-1})$. Our findings are essential improvements and extension of several known findings in the literature.

    On Rough Parametric Marcinkiewicz Integrals Along Certain Surfaces

    by Mohammed Ali, Hussain Al-Qassem

    In this paper, we study rough Marcinkiewicz integrals associated with surfaces defined by ΨP,ϕ={(˜P(w),ϕ(w)):w∈Rm}. We establish the Lp-boundedness of these integrals when the kernel functions lie in the Lq(Sm−1) space. Combining this result with Yano’s extrapolation technique, we further obtain the Lp-boundedness under weaker kernel conditions—specifically, when the kernels belong to either the block space Bq(0,−1/2)(Sm−1) or L(logL)1/2(Sm−1). Our results extend and refine several previously known results on Marcinkiewicz integrals, offering broader applicability and sharper conclusions.

    Advances in Clinical Trial Design: Employing Adaptive Multiple Testing and Neyman Allocation for Unequal Samples

    by Hanan Hammouri, Muna Salman, Mohammed Ali, Ruwa Abdel Muhsen

    This study introduces a new method that combines three distinct approaches for comparing two treatments: Neyman allocation, the O’Brien and Fleming multiple testing procedure, and a system of different sample weights at different stages. This new approach is called the Neyman Weighted Multiple Testing Procedure (NWMP). Each of these adaptive designs “individually” has proven beneficial for clinical research by removing constraints that can limit clinical trials. The advantages of these three methods are merged into a single, innovative approach that demonstrates increased efficiency in this work. The multiple testing procedure allows for trials to be stopped before their chosen time frame if one treatment is more effective. Neyman allocation is a statistically sound method designed to enhance the efficiency and precision of estimates. It strategically allocates resources or sample sizes to maximize the quality of statistical inference, considering practical constraints. Additionally, using different weights in this method provides greater flexibility, allowing for the effective distribution of sample sizes across various stages of the research. This study demonstrates that the new method maintains similar efficiency in terms of the Type I error rate and statistical power compared to the O’Brien and Fleming test while offering additional flexibility. Furthermore, the research includes examples of both real and hypothetical cases to illustrate the developed procedure.
