Abstract
Motivated by the success of the familiar Dziok–Srivastava convolution operator, we introduce here a closely-related linear operator for analytic functions with fractional powers. By means of this linear operator, we then define and investigate a class of analytic functions. Finally, we determine certain conditions under which the partial sums of the linear operator of bounded turning are also of bounded turning. We also illustrate an application of a fractional integral operator.
