1. Introduction
A continuous function
is a complex-valued harmonic function in a domain
if both u and v are real harmonic in D. In any simply connected domain
we can write
where h and g are analytic in D. We call h the analytic part and g the co-analytic part of f. The harmonic function
is sense-preserving and locally one-to-one in D if
in D. See Clunie and Sheil-Small [3].For
denote by
the class of functions
that are harmonic multivalent and sense-preserving in the unit disk
where
are defined by | (1) |
which are analytic and multivalent functions in U . Also, denote by
subclass of
consisting of harmonic functions
where
and
are of the form  | (2) |
In 1984, Clunie and Sheil-Small [3] investigated the class
and as well as its geometric subclasses and obtained some coefficient bounds. Since then, there have been several related papers on
and its subclasses. For more basic results one may refer to the following standard introductory text book by Duren [4], see also Ahuja [1], Jahangiri et al. [5] and Ponnusamy and Rasila ([6], [7]).The convolution of two functions of form  | (3) |
Let
denote the subclass of
consisting of functions
that satisfy the condition  | (4) |
Define
Lemma (1) [2]: Let
Then
if and only if
where w be any complex number.
2. Coefficient Estimates
We begin with a sufficient condition for the function in
to be the class
Theorem (2.1): Let
defined in (1). If  | (5) |
Where
then
is harmonic Multivalent sense-preserving in U and
Proof: Let
By lemma (1), we must show that (4) holds true. It suffices to show that
Substituting for w and resorting to simple calculation, we find
Theorem (2.2): Let
with h and g given by (2). Then
if and only if  | (6) |
Proof: From theorem (2.1) to prove the necessary part, let us assume that
using (4), we get
If we choose z to be real and let
we obtain the condition (6) and the proof is complete.
3. Convex Set
Theorem (3.1): The class
is convex set.Proof: Let the function
be in the class
It is sufficient to show that the function
defined by: | (7) |
is in the class
we have
Since for 
In view of Theorem (2.1), we have
Hence,
. This completes the proof.
4. Distortion and Covering
The next Theorem is on the distortion and covering bounds for functions in the class
Theorem (4.1): If
then | (8) |
and | (9) |
Proof: Assume that
Then by Theorem (2.2), we obtain
Relation (9) can be proved by using the similar statements. The covering result given in corollary (4.2) follows from the inequality (9) of this Theorem.Corollary(4.2): If
then 
5. Weighted Mean
Definition (5.1): Let
where
Then the weighted mean
is given by
In the theorem below, we will show the weighted mean for this class:Theorem (5.2): If
and
be in the class
then the weighted mean of
is also in the class
Proof: By Definition (5.1), we have
Since
are in the class
so by Theorem (2.2), we get
and
Then
