Abstract
In 2012, new classes of analytic functions on with coefficient holomorphic functions in were defined to give a new approach to the concepts of strong differential subordination and strong differential superordination. Using those new classes, the extended Dziok–Srivastava operator is introduced in this paper and, applying fractional integral to the extended Dziok–Srivastava operator, we obtain a new operator that was not previously studied using the new approach on strong differential subordinations and superordinations. In the present article, the fractional integral applied to the extended Dziok–Srivastava operator is investigated by applying means of strong differential subordination and superordination theory using the same new classes of analytic functions on Several strong differential subordinations and superordinations concerning the operator are established, and the best dominant and best subordinant are given for each strong differential subordination and strong differential superordination, respectively. This operator may have symmetric or asymmetric properties.

1. Introduction
Antonino and Romaguera [1] were the first who used the notion of strong differential subordination to study the Briot–Bouquet strong differential subordination. They introduced this concept as an extension of the classical differential subordination defined by Miller and Mocanu [2,3]. The well-known notions from the theory of differential subordination [4] were extended in 2009 [5], building the theory of strong differential subordination. The dual notion of differential subordination, differential superordination [6] was extended in 2009 [7], introducing the concept of strong differential superordination. The theories of strong differential subordination and superordination experienced a beautiful development. The best dominant for a strong differential subordination, and the dual notion, the best subordinant of a strong differential superordination, were established in [8], and first examples of strong differential subordinations and superordinations of analytic functions were given in [9]. Since then, there have been results regarding strong differential subordination and superordination with well-known operators: Liu–Srivastava operator [10], Sălăgean differential operator [11], Ruscheweyh derivative [12] and combinations between Sălăgean and Ruscheweyh operators [13], Komatu integral operator [14,15], multiplier transformation [16,17], general differential operators [18,19], and many others well-known operators [20,21,22,23].
Fractional calculus was associated with strong differential subordination theory in early studies [24], but this line of research was not followed. The development facilitated using quantum calculus and fractional calculus in geometric function theory is described in Srivastava’s paper [25]. A new integro-differential operator defined considering the meromorphic functions and the Mittag-Leffler function is studied in [26]. In Ref. [27], formulas for several fractional differintegral operators were developed and introduced by applying Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals. Ref. [28] described a qualitative analysis regarding a nonlinear Langevin integro-fractional differential equation. Fractional calculus is applied to Mittag-Leffler functions of one, two, three, and four parameters in [29]. Applying fractional calculus to the Mittag-Leffler function and confluent hypergeometric functions, new results were obtained in [30] regarding the Mittag-Leffler-confluent hypergeometric function. In [31], the authors applied fractional calculus to special functions to define and investigate new variants of the Gamma and Kummer functions for Mittag-Leffler functions. The Caputo–Katugampola fractional derivative was introduced and used to study a new class of fractional Volterra–Fredholm integro-differential equations in [32].
Starting with the results obtained in [33], which investigated the fractional integral of the Dziok–Srivastava operator using differential subordination theory, we intended to study this operator regarding the other types of differential subordinations and superordinations: strong and fuzzy. Therefore, in this paper we used the strong differential subordination and the strong differential superordination theories and we extended the Dziok–Srivastava operator to the class of analytic functions and, applying fractional integral to this extended operator, we introduced a new operator in , which has not been previously studied.
The novelty of this research is in the definition of the fractional integral of the extended Dziok–Srivastava operator introduced in Definition 6 and in the manner in which it is used to get new strong differential subordination results, together with the dual new strong differential superordinations. In each theorem, the best dominant or the best subordinant, respectively, is established. Replacing the functions considered as best subordinant or best dominant from the theorems with remarkable functions and using their geometric properties produce interesting corollaries.
Next, the main notions used in the research are recalled and basic lemmas applied to prove the main results.
The expression represents the family of analytic functions from considering and its closure . To avoid the similarity problem, the classical notations must be changed.

3. Conclusions
This paper is intended to propose a new line of investigation for strong differential subordination and its dual, strong differential superordination theories using fractional calculus.
As future research, the fractional integral of Dziok–Srivastava operator could be applied to quantum calculus to get differential subordinations and superordinations for it using q-fractional calculus. In addition, some classes of analytical functions can be introduced and investigated regarding the new defined operator. Conditions for univalence can be established for the defined classes, and coefficient studies could be done regarding those classes, like the Fekete–Szegő problem, Toeplitz determinants, or estimations for Hankel determinants of different orders.
In addition, fuzzy differential subordinations and fuzzy differential superordinations results were obtained involving the fractional integral of the Dziok–Srivastava operator in [48]. The fractional integral of the Dziok–Srivastava operator could be used for obtaining higher-order fuzzy differential subordinations, following study [49], regarding the classical theory of differential subordination. Hopefully, the fuzzy results obtained will have applications in future researches regarding real-life contexts.
The symmetry properties of the functions could be investigated to obtain solutions with particular properties for an equation or inequality. For the differential subordinations considered as inequalities, the investigation of special functions could get interesting results from applying their symmetry properties. Investigation regarding the symmetry properties of several functions involving quantum calculus could also be studied in a future paper.
