Continuous data assimilation for the 2D magnetohydrodynamic equations using one component of the velocity and magnetic fields

We propose several continuous data assimilation (downscaling) algorithms based on feedback control for the 2D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. We show that for sufficiently large choices of the control parameter and resolution and assuming that the observed data is error-free, the solution of the controlled system converges exponentially (in $L^2$ and $H^1$ norms) to the reference solution independently of the initial data chosen for the controlled system. Furthermore, we show that a similar result holds when controls are placed only on the horizontal (or vertical) variables, or on a single Els\"asser variable, under more restrictive conditions on the control parameter and resolution. Finally, using the data assimilation system, we show the existence of abridged determining modes, nodes and volume elements.
