I used these commands in order to have along with the \mathcal{L} a calligraphic L as well

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{report}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{calrsfs}
\DeclareMathAlphabet{\pazocal}{OMS}{zplm}{m}{n}
\newcommand{\La}{\mathcal{L}}
\newcommand{\Lb}{\pazocal{L}}

\begin{document}
$\La \Lb$
\end{document}

but now the other letters with \mathcal are not what they supposed to be. My question is, therefore, how can I keep using the \La,\Lb commands for the two L's and at the same time have the usual output of \mathcal for other letters, take \mathcal{O} for example.

    Welcome to tex.sx. It would help greatly if you could extend your code to be compilable, starting with \documentclass. Since font selection is affected greatly by the class, that will give potential helpers a realistic example that they can experiment with. – barbara beeton Sep 21 '19 at 17:52
  • If you want to use two different script or calligraphic alphabets, the simplest way to do so is to load one as \mathcal and the other as \mathscr with the mathallpha package. – Davislor Sep 22 '19 at 08:12
  • If you want to use three calligraphic alphabets in the same paper? Stop and consider whether that’s really a good idea. You did? Okay. Replace \usepackage{calrsfs} with another math alphabet definition, similar to the one you used for \pazocal. Be aware that you have only a limited number of math alphabets, unless you switch to unicode-math. – Davislor Sep 22 '19 at 08:15

\mathcal is automatically assigned to the reference package calrsfs (I think). If you want the classic \mathcal, you can use \pazocal instead of \mathcal as in the example below.

enter image description here

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{calrsfs}
\DeclareMathAlphabet{\pazocal}{OMS}{zplm}{m}{n}
\SetMathAlphabet\pazocal{bold}{OMS}{zplm}{bx}{n}
\newcommand{\mth}{\mathcal{A}}
\newcommand{\pzc}{\pazocal{A}}

\begin{document}
$\mathcal{A}$, $\pazocal{A},\boldsymbol{\pazocal{A}}$, $\mth,\pzc$
\end{document}
