We introduce and study some new subclasses of p-valent starlike, convex, close-to-convex, and
quasi-convex functions defined by certain Srivastava-Attiya operator. Inclusion relations are
established, and integral operator of functions in these subclasses is discussed.

it is easy to see that the function ψu, v satisfies condition i and ii of Lemma 2.2,inD
