  • We study well-posedness of a velocity-vorticity formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations, supplemented with no-slip velocity boundary conditions, a corresponding zero-normal condition for vorticity on the boundary, along with a natural vorticity boundary condition depending on a pressure functional. In the stationary case we prove existence and uniqueness of a suitable weak solution to the system under a small data condition. The topic of the paper is driven by recent developments of vorticity based numerical methods for the Navier-Stokes equations.
