Abstract: We prove that for any $0<s<1/2$, the Benjamin--Ono equation on the torus is globally in time $C^0-$well-posed on the Sobolev space $H^{-s}(T,R)$,in the sense that the solution map, which is known to be defined for smooth data, continuously extends to $H^{-s}(T,R)$. The solution map does not extend continuously to $H^{-s}(T,R)$ with $s>1/2$. Hence the critical Sobolev exponent $s_c=-1/2$ of the Benjamin--Ono equation is the threshold for well-posedness on the torus. The obtained solutions are almost periodic in time. Furthermore, we prove that the traveling wave solutions of the Benjamin--Ono equation on the torus are orbitally stable in $H^{-s}(T,R)$ for any $0les<1/2$.
