Abstract
Abstract In this paper, weighted endpoint estimates for the Hardy–Littlewood maximal function on the infinite rooted $k$-ary tree are provided. Motivated by Naor and Tao [ 23], the following Fefferman–Stein estimate $$\begin{align*}& w\left(\left\{ x\in T\,:\,Mf(x)&gt;\lambda\right\} \right)\leq c_{s}\frac{1}{\lambda}\int_{T}|f(x)|M(w^{s})(x)^{\frac{1}{s}}\: \text{d}x\qquad s&gt;1\end{align*}$$is settled, and moreover, it is shown that it is sharp, in the sense that it does not hold in general if $s=1$. Some examples of nontrivial weights such that the weighted weak type $(1,1)$ estimate holds are provided. A strong Fefferman–Stein-type estimate and as a consequence some vector-valued extensions are obtained. In the appendix, a weighted counterpart of the abstract theorem of Soria and Tradacete [ 38] on infinite trees is established.
