We derive some subordination results for the subclasses S(a,t), T(a,t), S0(a,t), and T0(a,t) of analytic functions concerning with Sakaguchi functions. Several corollaries and consequences of the main results are also considered.

1. Introduction and Definitions
Let denote the class of functions of the form
f (z) = z + 2 anZn (1.1)
which are analytic in the open unit disc A = {z : |z| < 1}. A function f (z) eA is said to be in the class S(a, t), if it satisfies
Re{ ff} > a « 1-t -1 (12)
for some 0 < a < 1 and for all z e A.
The class S(a, t) was introduced and studied by Owa et al. [4], where the class S(0, -1) was introduced by Sakaguchi [5]. Therefore, a function f (z) e S(a,-1) is called Sakaguchi function of order a.
We also denote by T(a,t) the subclass of A consisting of all functions f (z) such that zf '(z) e S(a, t).
We note that S (a, 0) = S*(a), the usual star-like function of order a and T (a, 0) = K(a) the usual convex function of order a.
We begin by recalling each of the following coefficient inequalities associated with the function classes S(a, t) and T(a, t).
Theorem 1.1 (see [4]). If f (z) e A satisfies
- Un\ + (1 - a)\un\}\an\ < 1 - a, (1.3)
where un = 1 + t +1 + ■■■ + tn 1 and 0 < a< 1, then f (z) e S(a, t). Theorem 1.2 (see [4]). If f (z) e A satisfies
Yn{\n - un\ + (1 - a)|un|}|an| < 1 - a, (1.4)
where un = 1 + t +1 + ■■■ + tn 1 and 0 < a < 1, then f (z) e T(a, t).
In view of Theorems 1.1 and 1.2, Owa et al. [4] defined the subclasses S0(a, t) c S(a, t) and T0(a, t) c T(a, t), where
S0(a,t) = f (z) e A : f (z) satisfies (1.3)},
T0(a,t) = f (z) e A : f (z) satisfies (1.4)}.
Before we state and prove our main results we need the following definitions and lemma.
Definition 1.3 (Hadamard product). Given two functions f,g e A, where f (z) is given by (1.1) and g(z) is defined by g(z) = z + ^^=2 bnzn the Hadamard product (or convolution) f * g is defined as
f * g) (z) = z + £anbnzn. (1.6)
Definition 1.4 (subordination principle). Let g(z) be analytic and univalent in A. If f (z) is analytic in A,f(0) = g(0), and f (A) c g(A), then we see that the function f (z) is subordinate to g(z) in A, and we write f (z) < g(z).
Definition 1.5 (subordinating factor sequence). A sequence {fc>n}^°=i of complex numbers is called a subordinating factor sequence if, whenever f (z) is analytic, univalent and convex in A, we have the subordination given by
^bnUnZn < f (z) (z e A, ai = 1). (1.7)
Lemma 1.6 (see [6]). The sequence {bn}°°=1 is a subordinating factor sequence if and only if
Re 1 + 2^bnzn\ > 0 (z e A). (1.8)
In this paper, we obtain a sharp subordination results associated with the classes S(a, t) , T(a,t),S0(a,t), and T0(a, t) by using the same techniques as in [1, 2, 7, 8].
2. Subordination Results for the Classes S0(a, t) and S(a, t)
Theorem 2.1. Let the function f (z) defined by (1.1) be in the class S0(a,t). Also let K denote the familiar class of functions f (z) e A which are also univalent and convex in A. If {n|n - un\ + (1 - a) |un|}°=2 is increasing sequence for all n > 2, then
11 - t| + (1 - a)|1 + t| -(f * g)(z) « g(z) (|t|< 1, t = 1; 0 < a < 1; z e A; g eK),
2(|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 + t|))
Re(f(z)) >j1+m c e a). (2,)
The constant (|1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 +1|)/2(|1 -1| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 + t|)) is the best estimate. Proof. Let f (z) e S](a, t) and let g(z) = z + £°°=2 cnzn e K. Then
|1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 + t| f )(z) = I1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 + t| ( ^ 2(|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 + t|)) f g (z) = 2(|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 + tD)\z + ¿fnCnz
Thus, by Definition 1.5, the assertion of our theorem will hold if the sequence
|1 - t| + (1 - a) |1 + t| (2.4)
2(|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 + t|)) ^n=1
is a subordinating factor sequence, with a1 = 1. In view of Lemma 1.6, this will be the case if and only if
4 -1, v<1 ^ i ;„> ^ > o,,<25,
RH1 - I 1.-'l<+ ^-f1 + 'I >¿a,,;'

| 1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + | 1 + t|) | 1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + | 1 + t|) > 0, ( |z | = r< 1).
Thus (2.5) holds true in A. This proves inequality (2.1). Inequality (2.2) follows by taking the convex function g(z) = z/(1 - z) = z + ^°=2 zn in (2.1). To prove the sharpness of the constant (|1 -1| + (1 - a)|1 +1|)/(2(11 -1| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 +1|))), we consider the function f0(z) e S0(a, t) given by
fo(z) = Z-|1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 + t|z2 (0 * a< 1). (27)
Thus from <2.1), we have
p - l| + <! - a)|1 +t\ /o<=) < = <2.8)
2<|1 - t| + <1 - a)<1 + |1 + tDY 0W 1 - z'
It can easily verified that
min{Re( 2<|1 - -^ £ ,|)) fo<z))} = -2 <z S .). <2.9)
This shows that the constant <|1 - t| + <1 - a)1 + t|)/<2<|1 - t| + <1 - a)<1 + |1 + t|))) is best possible. □
Corollary 2.2. Let the function f (z) defined by (1.1) be in the class S(a,t). Also let K denote the familiar class of functions f (z) e A which are also univalent and convex in A. If {|n - u„| + (1 - a)\u„ |}°°=2 is increasing sequence for all n > 2, then (2.1) and (2.2) of Theorem 2.1 hold true. Furthermore, the constant (|1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 + t|)/(2(|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + |1 + t|))) is the best estimate.
Letting t = -1 in Corollary 2.2, we have the following.

The constant 1/(3 - a) is the best estimate.
Letting t = 0 in Corollary 2.2, we have the following result obtained by Ali et al. [1] and Frasin [2].

The constant (2 - a)/2(3 - 2a) is the best estimate.
Letting a = 0 in Corollary 2.4, we have the following result obtained by Singh [3].
Corollary 2.5 (see [3]). Let the function f (z) defined by (1.1) be in the class S*. Also let K denote the familiar class of functions f (z) e A which are also univalent and convex in A. Then
3 f * g) (z) « g (z) (z e A; g eK),

Re( f (z)) > - - (z e A). The constant 1/3 is the best estimate.
3. Subordination Results for the Classes T0(a,t) and T(a,t)
By applying Theorem 1.2 instead of Theorem 1.1, the proof of the next theorem is much akin to that of Theorem 2.1.
Theorem 3.1. Let the function f (z) defined by (1.1) be in the class T0 (a,t). Also let K denote the familiar class of functions f (z) e A which are also univalent and convex in A. If {(|n - un| + (1 - a)\u„\) }°°=2 is increasing sequence for all n > 2, then
11 - tl + (1 - a)|1 + tl -if * g)(z) « g(z) (|t|< 1, t /1; 0 < a < 1; z e A; g eK),
2|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + 2|1 + t|)
Re(f(z)) > -2|1 -1| + (1 - a)(1 + 2|1 +t|) (z e a) (3 2)
f (z^ > 2(|1 -1| + (1 - a)|1 + t|) (z e A)' (3.2)
The constant (|1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 +1|)/(2|1 -1| + (1 - a)(1 + 2|1 +1|)) is the best estimate.
Corollary 3.2. Let the function f (z) defined by (1.1) be in the class T(a,t). Also let K denote the familiar class of functions f (z) e A which are also univalent and convex in A. If {n|n - u„| + (1 - a)|u„|}°°=2 is increasing sequence for all n > 2, then (3.1) and (3.2) of Theorem 3.1 hold true. Furthermore, the constant (|1 - t| + (1 - a)|1 + t|)/(2|1 - t| + (1 - a)(1 + 2|1 + t|)) is the best estimate.
Letting t = -1 in Corollary 3.2, we have the following.

5 - a 5 (3-3) Re(f (z)) > -(z e A).
The constant 2/(5 - a) is the best estimate.
Letting t = 0 in Corollary 3.2, we have the following result obtained by Ali et al. [1], andFrasin [2] (see also [9]).
Corollary 3.4 (see [1]). Let the function f (z) defined by (1.1) be in the class T(a, 0). Also let K denote the familiar class of functions f (z) e A which are also univalent and convex in A. Then
; (f * g)(z) « g (z) (0 < a < 1; z e A; g eK)

Re(f(2)) >-Ira? (=e A)-
The constant (2 - a)/(5 - 3a) is the best estimate.

5 f * g) (z) « g (z) (z e A; g eX),
, (3.5)
Ref (z)) > -4 (z e A).
