Abstract

We investigate the initialization problem for the incompressible asymmetric fluids equations in two space dimensions. The problem is formulated as an optimal control problem. We prove that this problem has at least one and at most finite many solutions. Finally, we determine sufficient conditions to assure uniqueness of the solution.
