This paper aims to study \(A_p\) weights in the context of a class of metric measure spaces with exponential volume growth, namely infinite trees with root at infinity equipped with the geodesic distance and flow measures. Our main result is a Muckenhoupt Theorem, which is a characterization of the weights for which a suitable Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on the corresponding weighted \(L^p\) spaces. We emphasise that this result does not require any geometric assumption on the tree or any condition on the flow measure. We also prove a reverse Hölder inequality in the case when the flow measure is locally doubling. We finally show that the logarithm of an \(A_p\) weight is in BMO and discuss the connection between \(A_p\) weights and quasisymmetric mappings.
