Following the work of T. F. Kalugina [Moscow Univ. Math. Bull. 30, No.5/6, 108-116 (1975; Zbl 0333.46021)] and J. Gustavsson [Math. Scand. 42, 289-305 (1978; Zbl 0389.46024)] the author studies the weighted interpolation spaces $(A_ 0,A_ 1)_{w,p}=\{a:\quad a\in A_ 0+A_ 1,\{\int^{\infty}_{0}[\frac{K(t,a;A_ 0,A_ 1)}{w(t)}]^ p\frac{dt}{t}\}^{1/p}<\infty \}$ 0$$<p\leq \infty$$, where K is the Peetre functional and the weight w is non-negative, non- decreasing and satisfies $$\bar w(s)\Doteq \sup_{t>0}\frac{w(st)}{w(t)}<\infty \quad and\int^{\infty}_{0}\min (1,1/t)\bar w(t)\frac{dt}{t}<\infty.$$ The main result shows that if $$E_ i=(A_ 0,A_ 1)_{w_ i,q_ i},$$ $$i=0,1$$ and $$\tau (t)=w_ 0(t)/w_ t(t)$$ satisfies certain conditions, $$then$$
K(t,a;E$${}_ 0,E_ 1)\sim (\int^{\tau^{- 1}(t)}_{0}[\frac{K^{(s,a;A_ 0,A_ 1)}}{w(s)}]^{q_ 0}\frac{ds}{s})^{1/q_ 0}+$$
$$t(\int^{\infty}_{\tau^{-1}(t)}[\frac{K^{(s,a;A_ 0,A_ 1)}}{w(s)}]^{q_ 1}\frac{ds}{s})^{1/q_ 1}.$$
This reduces to a result of T. Holmstedt [Math. Scand. 26, 177-199 (1970; Zbl 0193.088)] for $$w(t)=t^{\theta}$$, $$0<\theta <1$$. It also yields a reiteration theorem for these weighted spaces.
In addition $$(L^ r,L^{\infty})_{w,p}$$, $$0<p,r<\infty$$, is shown to be the space of functions f for which $$\int^{\infty}_{0}[\frac{f^*(t^ r)t}{w(t)}]^ p\frac{dt}{t}<\infty,$$ where $$f^*$$ is the decreasing rearrangement of f. For specific w this reduces to the Lorentz-Zygmund spaces $$L^{pq}(Log L)^{\alpha}$$.
