Introduction

In 1995, Roper and Suffridge [1] introduced an extension operator. For a normalized locally biholomorphic function f on the unit disk D in C, the operator is defined by  ′ p Φn (f )(z) = f (z1 ), f ′ (z1 )z0′ , (1.1)

In [1], Roper and Suffridge proved that if f is a normalized convex function on D, then Φn (f ) is a normalized convex mapping on B n . In [2, 3], Graham and Kohr proved that the Roper-Suffridge operator preserves the properties of starlikeness and Bloch on B n , respectively. In 2002, Gong and Liu [4, 5] introduced the definition of ε starlike mappings and obtained that the operator Φn,(1/p) (f )(z) = (f (z1 ), (f ′ (z1 ))1/p z0′ )′ , (1.2) maps the ε starlike functions on D to the ε starlike mappings on the Reinhardt domain Ωn,p = {z = (z1 , z0′ )′ ∈ C × Cn−1 : |z1 |2 + kz0 kpp < 1}, (1.3)  P n 1/p , p ≥ 1. When ε = 0 and ε = 1, where z0 = (z2 , · · · , zn )′ ∈ Cn−1 , kz0 kp = |zj |p j=2

Φn,(1/p) (f ) maps the starlike function and convex function on D to the starlike mapping and the convex mapping on Ωn,p , respectively. Furthermore, Gong and Liu [6] proved that the operator Φn,(1/p2 ),··· ,(1/pn ) (f )(z) = (f (z1 ), (f ′ (z1 ))1/p2 z2 , · · · , (f ′ (z1 ))1/pn zn )′ ,

where pj ≥ 1, j = 2, · · · , n. The extension operator (1.4) on the domain Ωn,p2 ,··· ,pn is also studied by Liu and Liu [7], Feng and Liu [8]. In 2005, Muir [9] modified the Roper-Suffridge extension operator as p F (z) = (f (z1 ) + f ′ (z1 )P (z0 ), f ′ (z1 )z0′ )′ , (1.6)

where P (z0 ) is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 2 with respect to z0 , and f , z1 and z0 are defined as above. He proved that this operator preserves starlikeness and convexity if and only if ||P || ≤ 1/4 and ||P || ≤ 1/2, respectively. The modified operator plays an important role in studying the extreme points of convex mappings on B n (see [10, 11]). Recently, the modified Roper-Suffridge extension operator (1.6) on the unit ball is also studied by Wang and Liu [12], Feng and Yu [13]. But the modified Roper-Suffridge extension operator in [12, 13] has a little difference from [9]. In [12, 13], P (z0 ) is a homogeneous polynomial of degree k with respect to z0 , where k ≥ 2. In 2011, Wang and Gao [14] introduced a new Roper-Suffridge extension operator on the following Reinhardt domain Ωn,p2 ,··· ,pn given by F (z) = (f (z1 ) + f ′ (z1 )

which can preserve the properties of almost starlikeness of order α, starlikeness of order α and strongly starlikeness of order α on the domain ΩN given by different conditions for Pj , j = 2, · · · , k, respectively, where ΩN is definded as n o ΩN = z = (z1 , z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ ∈ C × Cn2 × · · · × Cnk : |z1 |2 + kz2 kp22 + · · · + kzk kpkk < 1 , (1.9) and for j = 2, · · · , k, nj ≥ 1, pj ≥ 1, zj = (zj1 , · · · , zjnj )′ ∈ Cnj , kzj kj =

n For notations, let D = {z ∈ C : |z| < 1} be the unit disk in C, B n = z = (z1 , · · · , zn )′ ∈ o  21 P n < 1 be the unit ball in Cn . Let Ω be a domain in Cn . Denote : kzk = |zj |2 j=1

H(Ω) be the set of all holomorphic mappings from Ω into Cn . A mapping f ∈ H(Ω) is called normalized if f (0) = 0, Jf (0) = In , where Jf (0) is the complex Jacob matrix of f at the origin and In is the identity matrix on Cn . A mapping f ∈ H(Ω) is said to be locally biholomorphic if det Jf (z) 6= 0 for ∀z ∈ Ω. A normalized mapping f ∈ H(Ω) is said to be convex if there exists a point z ∈ Ω such that f (z) = tf (z1 ) + (1 − t)f (z2 ) for ∀z1 , z2 ∈ Ω and ∀t ∈ [0, 1]. A normalized mapping f ∈ H(Ω) is said to be starlike if tf (z) ∈ H(Ω), for ∀z ∈ Ω and ∀t ∈ [0, 1]. Assume that P : Cn −→ C is a homogeneous polynomial of degree k. Then P satisfies P (λz) = λk P (z) ∂P ∂P for ∀z ∈ Cn and ∀λ ∈ C. It is easy to see that ∇P (z)z = kP (z), where ∇P (z) = ( ∂z , · · · , ∂z ) 1 n n is the gradient of P (z). The norm of P is given by kP k = sup{|P (z)| : z ∈ ∂B }. A domain Ω is said to be a Reinhardt domain if (eiθ1 z1 , · · · , eiθn zn ) ∈ Ω holds for ∀z ∈ Ω and ∀θ1 , · · · , θn ∈ R. A domain Ω is said to be a circular domain if eiθ z ∈ Ω holds for ∀z ∈ Ω and ∀θ ∈ R. Denote ρ(z) = inf{t > 0 : z/t ∈ Ω} to be the Minkowski functional of the domain Ω. If Ω is a bounded circular convex domain, then Ω is a Banach space in Cn with respect to this norm, and Ω = {z ∈ Cn : ρ(z) < 1}. Definition1.1 [15] Suppose Ω is a bounded starlike circular domain in Cn . Its Minkowski functional ρ(z) is C 1 except for a lower-dimensional manifold. Let 0 ≤ α < 1. A normalized locally biholomorphic mapping f ∈ H(Ω) is said to be an almost starlike mapping of order α if Re

(1.10)

When Ω = B n , the Minkowski functional ρ(z) = kzk, and the above inequality becomes Rez ′ Jf−1 (z)f (z) ≥ α||z||2 , ∀z ∈ B n \ {0}.

(1.11)

In particular, when α = 0, f is a starlike mapping on Ω. Definition 1.2 [16] Suppose Ω is a bounded starlike circular domain in Cn , and its Minkowski functional ρ(z) is C 1 except for a lower-dimensional manifold. Let 0 < α < 1. A normalized locally biholomorphic mapping f ∈ H(Ω) is said to be a starlike mapping of order α if 2 ∂ρ 1 1 −1 (1.12) ρ(z) ∂z (z)Jf (z)f (z) − 2α < 2α , ∀z ∈ Ω \ {0}.

Definition 1.3 [17] Let 0 < α ≤ 1. Suppose Ω is a bounded starlike circular domain in Cn , and its Minkowski functional ρ(z) is C 1 except for a lower-dimensional manifold. A normalized locally biholomorphic mapping f (z) ∈ H(Ω) is said to be a strongly starlike mapping of order α on Ω if   π 2 ∂ρ −1 arg (z)Jf (z)f (z) < α, ∀z ∈ Ω \ {0}.

it is the definition of strongly starlike function of order α on D. From Definition 1.3, we know that if f is a strongly starlike mapping of order α on Ω, then f is a starlike mapping on Ω, furthermore f is a strongly starlike mapping of order β on Ω, where 0 < β < α. ′ If f (z) ∈ H(Ω) is a normalized locally biholomorphic mapping, A is a normal matrix(AA = ′ A A), then f is said to be spirallike mapping relative to A, if e−At Ω and n f (z) ∈ f (Ω), for ∀z ∈ o −1 2 ∂ρ ∀t ≥ 0. f is a spirallike mapping relative to A if and only if Re ρ(z) ∂z (z)Jf (z)Af (z) ≥ 0,

∀z ∈ Ω \ {0} (see [16]). When A = e−iβ I, f is said to be spirallike mapping of type β (β ∈ R, |β| < π2 ). When n = 1, f is a spirallike function of type β on D if and only if ([18])   zf ′ (z) Re eiβ > 0, ∀z ∈ D. (1.17) f (z) In one complex variable, Stankiewicz [18] has given an interesting relationship between strongly starlike function of order α and spirallike function of type β. If we denote S ∗ (α) to be the family of strongly starlike functions of order α, where 0 < α ≤ 1, and SP (β) to be the family of spirallike functions of type β, where β ∈ R, |β| < π2 , then \ S ∗ (α) = SP (β). (1.18) |β|≤ π 2 (1−α)

Some Lemmas

In order to prove the main results, we need the following lemmas. Lemma 2.1 [19] Suppose Ω ⊆ Cn is a bounded starlike circular domain in Cn , and its Minkowski function ρ(z) is C 1 on Ω except for a lower-dimensional manifold, then ∂ρ (z)z = ρ(z), ∀z ∈ Cn ; ∂z ∂ρ 2Re (z0 )z0 = 1, ∀z0 ∈ ∂Ω; ∂z ∂ρ ∂ρ (λz) = (z), ∀λ ∈ [0, +∞); ∂z ∂z ∂ρ iθ ∂ρ (e z) = e−iθ (z), ∀θ ∈ R. ∂z ∂z 2Re

If (z2 , · · · , zk ) = 0, then F (z) = (f (z1 ), 0, · · · , 0)′ . Therefore, we can get the result by the definition of function f . Note that the mapping F is holomorphic at every point z = (z1 , z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ ∈ ΩN . Let z = ζu = eiθ |ζ|u, u ∈ ∂ΩN , and ζ ∈ D \ {0}, then we have   2 ∂ρ (z)JF−1 (z)F (z) ≥ α Re ρ(z) ∂z   2 ∂ρ iθ −1 iθ iθ ⇐⇒ Re (e |ζ|u)J (e |ζ|u)F (e |ζ|u) ≥α F ρ(eiθ |ζ|u) ∂z   2 e−iθ ∂ρ iθ ⇐⇒ Re (e |ζ|u)JF−1 (eiθ |ζ|u)F (eiθ |ζ|u) ≥ α |ζ| ∂z   JF−1 (ζu)F (ζu) 2∂ρ ⇐⇒ Re (u) ≥ α.

is the real part of a holomorphic function with respect to ζ, and thus, it is a harmonic function. By the minimum principle for harmonic functions, we know that it attains its minimum on |ζ| = 1. Therefore, we only need to prove that inequality (3.1) holds for (z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ 6= 0 and z ∈ ∂ΩN , i.e., ρ(z) = 1. It means that we need to prove   2∂ρ −1 Re (z)JF (z)F (z) ≥ α, ∀z ∈ ∂ΩN , (z2 , · · · , zk ) 6= 0. (3.3) ∂z Since

Theorem 3.2 Let 0 < α < 1 and let f be a starlike function of order α on the unit disc D. For j = 2, · · · , k, Pj : Cnj −→ C is a homogeneous polynomial of zj with degree pj ≥ 1. If kPj k ≤ 1−|2α−1| , j = 2, · · · , k, then 8α F (z) = (f (z1 ) + f ′ (z1 )

is a starlike mapping of order α on the domain ΩN , where the branches are chosen such that 1 (f ′ (0)) pj = 1. Proof By the definition of starlike mapping of order α, we only need to prove that the following inequality 2 ∂ρ 1 1 −1 (3.10) ρ(z) ∂z (z)JF (z)F (z) − 2α < 2α holds for z ∈ ΩN \ {0}. If (z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ = 0, then F (z) = (f (z1 ), 0, · · · , 0)′ . Therefore, we can get the result by the definition of function f . Note that the mapping F is holomorphic at every point z = (z1 , z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ ∈ ΩN . Let z = ζu = eiθ |ζ|u, u ∈ ∂ΩN , and ζ ∈ D \ {0}, then we have 2 ∂ρ 1 1 −1 < (z)J (z)F (z) − F ρ(z) ∂z 2α 2α 1 ∂ρ iθ 1 2 −1 iθ iθ < ⇐⇒ iθ (e |ζ|u)JF (e |ζ|u)F (e |ζ|u) − ρ(e |ζ|u) ∂z 2α 2α −iθ 2 e ∂ρ iθ 1 1 < ⇐⇒ (e |ζ|u)JF−1 (eiθ |ζ|u)F (eiθ |ζ|u) − |ζ| ∂z 2α 2α −1 2∂ρ 1 J (ζu)F (ζu) 1 ⇐⇒ < (u) F − . (3.11) ∂z ζ 2α 2α The expression J −1 (ζu)F (ζu) 2∂ρ 1 (u) F − ∂z ζ 2α is holomorphic with respect to ζ. Thus, the maximum modules principle for holomorphic functions yields that it attains its maximum on |ζ| = 1. Therefore, we only need to prove that inequality (3.10) holds for z ∈ ∂ΩN and (z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ 6= 0. From the proof of Theorem 3.1, we can get ∂ρ G(z) 2 (z)JF−1 (z)F (z) = , k P ∂z p 2|z1 |2 + pj ||zj ||j j j=2

Proof By Lemma 2.7, we only need to prove F (z) is spirallike mapping of type β, for all |β| ≤ π2 (1 − α). From the definition of spirallike mapping ([16]), we need to prove   −1 −iβ 2 ∂ρ Re e (z)Jf (z)f (z) ≥ 0, ∀z ∈ ΩN \ {0}. (3.15) ρ(z) ∂z Similarly to the inequality (3.1), we only need to prove inequality (3.13) holds for (z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ 6= 0 and z ∈ ∂ΩN , i.e. ρ(z) = 1. It means that we need to prove   ∂ρ Re 2e−iβ (z)JF−1 (z)F (z) ≥ 0, ∀z ∈ ∂ΩN , (z2′ , · · · , zk′ )′ 6= 0. (3.16) ∂z From equality (3.7), we have 2e−iβ

where G(z) is defined by (3.8). From (1.18), we know f is spirallike function of type β for |β| ≤ π2 (1 − α). Let h(z1 ) = −iβ f (z1 ) e z1 f ′ (z1 ) , z1 ∈ D. By (1.17), we know that Reh(z1 ) > 0; and by Lemma 2.5, there is an
