Abstract
The pseudo-parabolic regularization technique is applied to establish the well-posedness of local solutions for a generalized Novikov equation in the Sobolev space \(H^s(R)\) with \(s>\frac{3}{2}\). The existence of local weak solutions for the equation in the lower order Sobolev space \(H^s\) with \(1\le s\le \frac{3}{2}\) is also investigated.
