In this paper, we study an initial-boundary value problem of the Korteweg-de Vries equation posed on a bounded interval (0, L) with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions, which is known to be locally well-posed in the Sobolev space H-s(0, L) with s %26gt; -3/4. Taking the advantage of the hidden dissipative mechanism and the sharp trace regularities of its solutions, we show that the problem is locally well-posed in the space H-s (0, L) with s %26gt; -1.
