Abstract: Global weighted Lp-estimates are obtained for the gradient of solutions to a class of linear singular, degenerate elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems over a bounded non-smooth domain. The coefficient matrix is symmetric, nonnegative definite, and both its smallest and largest eigenvalues are proportion to a weight in a Muckenhoupt class. Under a smallness condition on the mean oscillation of the coefficients with the weight and a Reifenberg flatness condition on the boundary of the domain, we establish a weighted gradient estimate for weak solutions of the equation. A class of degenerate coefficients satisfying the smallness condition is characterized. A counter example to demonstrate the necessity of the smallness condition on the coefficients is given. Our W1,p-regularity estimates can be viewed as the Sobolev's counterpart of the H"{o}lder's regularity estimates established by B. Fabes, C. E. Kenig, and R. P. Serapioni in 1982.
