We address the dynamics of two-dimensional Navier-Stokes models with infinite delay and hereditary memory, whose kernels are a much larger class of functions than the one considered in the literature, on a bounded domain. We prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions by means of Faedo-Galerkin method. Moreover, we establish the existence of global attractor for the system with the existence of a bounded absorbing set and asymptotic compact property. stands for memory effect whose kernel κ is a nonnegative summable function of total mass ∞ 0 κ(s)ds = 1 having the explicit form κ(s) = ∞ s µ(r)dr. The Navier-Stokes equation reflects the basic mechanical law of viscous fluid flow, thus are very significant both in a purely mathematical sense and in the fluid applications including physics and biology. Since the first relative paper of Leray [24] published in 1933, the Navier-Stokes equation has been the object of numerous works. Caraballo and Han [12] considered the Navier-Stokes equations with delay effect which shows not only the present state but also its history in both autonomous and non-autonomous cases (see [15,31,39] and references therein). In 2001, Caraballo and Real [13] put forward the possibility of some kind of delay appearing in the Navier-Stokes equations in an open and bounded domain Ω ⊂ R N (N = 2 or 3) with regular boundary Γ:(1.2) and they proved the existence and uniqueness of solutions. Subsequently, they established the existence of a pullback attractor when N = 2 in [14]. Concerning the Navier-Stokes equation with finite delay in an unbounded domain, Garrido-Atienza and Marín-Rubio [20] addressed the existence and uniqueness of solutions for both the evolutionary and the stationary cases. Especially, in the three-dimensional case, they only proved the existence of solutions. These results were extended in R N with 2 ≤ N ≤ 4 by Niche and Planas [37]. For unbounded delay, the authors investigated the well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions [23, 30, 35] and their references. In addition, Liu, Caraballo and Marín-Rubio [27]studied the existence of pullback attractors for two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation with infinite delay by using the phase space BCL −∞ (H) which will be defined below rather than C γ (H) carried out in [31] for a 2D Navier-Stokes model with infinite delay due to lacking the term ∆(∂ t u). Recently, Anh and Thanh [4] discussed the 3D Navier-Stokes-Voigt equations with infinite delay of the formwhere α is length-scale parameter describing the elasticity of the fluid. Some results on the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions and the existence of global attractors were proved. Other types of delay including constant, bounded variable delay as well as bounded distributed delay can be found in [10,13] and reference therein.As for memory term, it plays an important role in the description of several phenomena such as non-Newtonian flows, soil mechanics and heat conduction theory and prescribes the effect of past history and provides a more realistic de...
