Abstract
We prove that the initial value problem (IVP) associated to the fifth order KdV equation {equation} \label{05KdV} \partial_tu-\alpha\partial^5_x u=c_1\partial_xu\partial_x^2u+c_2\partial_x(u\partial_x^2u)+c_3\partial_x(u^3), {equation} where , , is a real-valued function and are real constants with , is locally well-posed in for . In the Hamiltonian case (\textit i.e. when ), the IVP associated to \eqref{05KdV} is then globally well-posed in the energy space .

Comments
We corrected a few typos and fixed a technical mistake in the proof of Lemma 6.3. We also changed a comment on the work of Guo, Kwak and Kwon on the same subject according to the new version they posted recently on the arXiv (arXiv:1205.0850v2)
