In this paper, we introduce and investigate a new class of bi- univalent functions defined in the open unit disk  involving a general integral operator associated with the general Hurwitz- Lerch Zeta function denoted by 
 . The main result of the investigation is to estimate the upper bounds for the initial Taylor–Maclaurin coefficients of functions 
 and 
  for this class. Following, we find the second Hankel determinant. Several new results are shown after specializing the parameters employed in our main results.

Let  denote the class of all analytic functions in the open unit disk 
and normalized by the conditions 
 and given by the power series  
 
(1.1)
Let  denote the subclass of A consisting of univalent functions. The well-known Koebe one-quarter theorem (see [1]) every univalent function 
  contains a disk of radius 
, the inverse of  
 is a univalent analytic function on the disk  
Therefore, for each function 
, there is an inverse function 
 of  
 defined by

If and 
 are univalent function in U, then we say the function 
 is bi-univalent function in U.
The class of bi-univalent function in  given by (1.1) denoted by Σ. The following are some important examples of bi-univalent functions in U

Lewin [8] investigated in 1967 and showed a bound of the coefficient on the class  of bi-univalent functions and estimated  
 Following, Brannan and Clunie [9] showed the result of Lewin and established that 
 Afterwards, Netanyahu [10] showed that 
 Then many authors approximate the Taylor-Maclaurin coefficient 
 and defined new subclasses of bi-univalent analytic functions unit disk see (e.g. [11]- [13]). However, the problem to estimate the coefficients of 
 still an open.  In current paper, employing the techniques of Srivastava et al [13] which have brought back interest in the study of analytic and bi-univalent functions, we introduce a new class and estimates of the coefficients 
 and

In 1976 Noonan and Thomas [2] defined the Hankel determinant of a function   for

Thus, we have:

CONCLUSION
In this study, A new class of bi-univalent functions in the open unit disk has been introduced and defined via a general integral operator. Derived estimates for the initial coefficients of functions and further obtained an upper bound for the second Hankel determinant for this class. Several existing and new results may be identified as special cases of our main result. By varying the parameters involved, these results contribute to the further development of the theory of bi-univalent functions and open new avenues for future studies of other special functions operators. Many research papers have been utilized to investigate various problems related to this area, can be see (e.g. [25-26])., Journal of Humanitarian and Applied Sciences, 8,496-504.
