Abstract

The pseudoparabolic regularization technique is employed to study the local well-posedness of strong solutions for a nonlinear dispersive model, which includes the famous Camassa-Holm equation. The local well-posedness is established in the Sobolev space 𝐻 𝑠 ( 𝑅 ) with 𝑠 > 3 / 2 via a limiting procedure.
