In 1986, E. Sawyer introduced the one-sided Hardy-Littlewood maximal functions and characterized the inequalities from \(L^p(u)\) to \(L^q(v)\), \(1\leq p\leq q<\infty\), where \(u\) and \(v\) are two weight functions on \(\mathbb{R}^1\). \textit{F. J. Martin-Reyes} and \textit{A. de la Torre} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 117, No. 2, 483-489 (1993; Zbl 0769.42010)] extended Sawyer's result to the fractional one-sided maximal operators \[ M^+_\alpha f(x)= \sup_{h> 0} h^{-\alpha} \int^{x+ h}_x| f(y)| dy. \] In the paper under review, the author characterizes weighted weak and strong type inequalities for the fractional one-sided maximal operators on Lorentz and Orlicz spaces.
