Considering the Cauchy problem for the Korteweg-de VriesBurgers equationwhere 0 < , α 1 and u is a real-valued function, we show that it is globally well-posed in H s (s > s α ), and uniformly globally wellposed in H s (s > −3/4) for all ∈ (0, 1]. Moreover, we prove that for any T > 0, its solution converges in C ([0, T ]; H s ) to that of the KdV equation if tends to 0.
