We study the boundedness of the one-sided operator $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ between the weighted spaces $L^p\left(M¯w\right)$ and $L^p\left(w\right)$ for every weight w. If λ = 2/p whenever 1 < p < 2, and in the case p = 1 for λ > 2, we prove the weak type of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$. For every λ > 1 and p = 2, or λ > 2/p and 1 < p < 2, the boundedness of this operator is obtained. For p > 2 and λ > 1, we obtain the boundedness of $g{⁺}_{\lambda ,\phi }$ from $L^p\left({\left(M¯\right)}^{[p/2]+1}w\right)$ to $L^p\left(w\right)$, where ${\left(M¯\right)}^k$ denotes the operator M¯ iterated k times.

We obtain weighted $L^p$ boundedness, with weights of the type $y^{\delta }$, δ > -1, for the maximal operator of the heat semigroup associated to the Laguerre functions, ${{ℒ}_k^{\alpha }}_k$, when the parameter α is greater than -1. It is proved that when -1 < α < 0, the maximal operator is of strong type (p,p) if p > 1 and 2(1+δ)/(2+α) < p < 2(1+δ)/(-α), and if α ≥ 0 it is of strong type for 1 < p ≤ ∞ and 2(1+δ)/(2+α) < p. The behavior at the end points of the intervals where there is strong type is studied...
