We prove local existence and uniqueness of weak solutions of the Camassa–Holm equation with periodic boundary conditions in various spaces of low-regularity which include the periodic peakons. The proof uses the connection of the Camassa–Holm equation with the geodesic flow on the diffeomorphism group of the circle with respect to the L 2 metric.
