Optimal control of the 2D constrained Navier-Stokes equations

We study the 2D Navier-Stokes equations within the framework of a constraint that ensures energy conservation throughout the solution. By employing the Galerkin approximation method, we demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of a global solution for the constrained Navier-Stokes equation on the torus ${\mathbb{T}}^2$. Moreover, we investigate the linearized system associated with the 2D-constrained Navier-Stokes equations, exploring its existence and uniqueness. Subsequently, we establish the Lipschitz continuity and Fr$\acute{e}$chet differentiability properties of the solution mapping. Finally, employing the formal Lagrange method, we prove the first-order necessary optimality conditions.
