The pseudoparabolic equations are characterized by the presence of mixed third order derivatives. Here the existence theory for degenerate parabolic equations is extended to the pseudoprabolic case, and degenerate pseudoparabolic equations with nonlinear integral operator are treated. Furthermore, quasilinear equations, posed on time intervals of the form (-\infty,T], are considered. Some nonlinear pseudoparabolic equations are obtained as reduced form of systems of equations. To show existence, the Galerkin and Rothe methods are used. The system of the degenerate equations is solved using the monotonicity and gradient assumptions on the nonlinear function. The discretization along characteristics is applied to equations with convection. The existence of solutions of variational inequalities is proved by a penalty method; here an inequality is replaced by an equation with an added penalty operator. The uniqueness follows from the monotonicity of the differential operators. In the case of nonlinear pseudoparabolic equations, the uniqueness can be shown for regular solutions only. The needed regularity is shown for two dimensional domains.
