Abstract: Using elliptic and parabolic regularity results in

L^{p}

-spaces and generalized Dirichlet form theory, we construct for every starting point weak solutions to SDEs in

m a t h b b R^{d}

up to their explosion times including the following conditions. For arbitrary but fixed

p > d

the diffusion coefficient

A = (a_{i j})_{1 l e i, j l e d}

is locally uniformly strictly elliptic with functions

a_{i j} i n H_{l o c}^{1, p} (m a t h b b R^{d})

and the drift coefficient

m a t h b f G = (g_{1}, d o t s, g_{d})

consists of functions

g_{i} i n L_{l o c}^{p} (m a t h b b R^{d})

. The solution originates by construction from a Hunt process with continuous sample paths on the one-point compactification of

m a t h b b R^{d}

and the corresponding SDE is by a known local well-posedness result pathwise unique up to an explosion time. Just under the given assumptions we show irreducibility and the strong Feller property on

L^{1} (m a t h b b R^{d}, m) + L^{i n f t y} (m a t h b b R^{d}, m)

of its transition function, and the strong Feller property on

L^{q} (m a t h b b R^{d}, m) + L^{i n f t y} (m a t h b b R^{d}, m)

,

q = f r a c d p d + p i n (d / 2, p / 2)

, of its resolvent, which both include the classical strong Feller property. We present moment inequalities and classical-like non-explosion criteria for the solution which lead to pathwise uniqueness results up to infinity under presumably optimal general non-explosion conditions. We further present explicit conditions for recurrence and ergodicity, including existence as well as uniqueness of invariant probability measures.
