1. Introduction
Let
denote the class of functions of the form
that are analytic multivalent in the open unit disc
For
the class
represents the class of normalized analytic and univalent functions in
.
Numerous fields of mathematics and science, including complex analysis, hypergeometric series, particle physics, and most importantly geometric function theory (GFT), have found extensive uses for the idea of
-calculus operators. Ismail and his associates’ introduction of the idea of
-starlike functions in 1990 [
1] was a significant turning point in this direction and signaled the start of a new field of study in GFT.
Jackson [
2,
3] established the foundation for
-analogues of classical operators by introducing the
-differential and
-integral operators and proving their applicability to the study of geometric functions.
Symmetric quantum (or
-) calculus applies
-calculus concepts to define new families of multivalent functions in GFT and studies the geometric properties of analytic functions. This approach uses symmetric quantum difference operators to generate new subclasses of functions with properties like
-starlikeness and
-convexity. Research in this area focuses on using these operators to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for function classes, explore properties like compactness and coefficient bounds, and generalize existing results in GFT for analytic functions. frakq-difference equations are an important aspect of mathematical analysis, particularly in the field known as GFT. Quantum calculus is frequently used in mathematical disciplines because of its numerous possible applications in basic hypergeometric functions [
4], orthogonal polynomials [
5,
6,
7], combinatorics [
8], and number theory [
9]. Several fundamental ideas in frakq-calculus [
10,
11,
12] demonstrate how it is integrated into mathematical ideas. Srivastava’s 1989 book chapter [
13] offered the appropriate foundation for integrating the concepts of frakq-calculus into GFT. For generalized subclasses of analytic functions, numerous authors have examined various frakq-calculus applications; see [
14,
15,
16,
17,
18].

A new application of the convolution-based
-analogue integral operator established in [
19] using the
-analogue multiplier operator and the
-analogue of Ruscheweyh operator is the aim of the current study in light of the results previously provided. Next, those operators are called back.

To prove our main results that generalize the recent results obtained by Irmak et al. [
24], we need the following lemmas. More general forms of these lemmas that are very useful in the theory of differential subordinations are provided by Miller and Mocanu [

4. Conclusions
The newly defined -p-analogue multiplier-Ruscheweyh operator is defined utilizing the concept of a -difference operator and the concept of convolution, and it extends several previously researched operators by many authors. This is what makes the above results innovative. Using classical principles of the general theory of differential subordinations, we discovered adequate requirements for a function to belong to the two new subclasses of functions defined by this operator. While the inquiry methods involving the two lemmas are more potent than those employed by the previous writers, these subclasses of multivalent functions could be linked to those indicated in Remark 1 and extend the classes of Remark 2. Furthermore, both of the aforementioned theorems provide us with straightforward necessary requirements for a function to belong to distinct subclasses of provided that the parameters are chosen appropriately. The studies focus on specific inclusion outcomes for the newly specified classes by and the Bernardi integral operator for the p-valent function preservation feature.
The goal of this work is to inspire further research in this area by introducing further generalized q-calculus operators and creating additional generalized subclasses of multivalent functions.
