Let H denote the class of harmonic functions f in D := {z ∈ C : |z| < 1} normalized by f (0) = 0 = f z (0) − 1. For α ≥ 0, we consider the following classIn this paper, we first prove the coefficient conjecture of Clunie and Sheil-Small for functions in the class W 0 H (α). We also prove growth theorem, convolution, convex combination properties for functions in the class W 0 H (α). Finally, we determine the value of r so that the partial sums of functions in the class W 0 H (α) are closeto-convex in |z| < r.1991 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 30C45, 30C80.
