54 The role played by BdW t is now played by a H-valued (cylindrical) Wiener process with covariance given by the operator B. The appropriate mathematical object is a linear function, say W B, from the tensor product L 2 ([0, ), dt) ˆ 2 H B into a Gaussian subspace of L 2 (Ω, F, P) where (Ω, F, P) is the complete probability space we work with. If x H B and t 0, then W B (1 [0,t) ( )x) should play the same role as < x, W t > in the finite dimensional case. 12/17

59 HJM Stochastic PDE 13/17 For the sake of the present discussion: Take α t 0 Choose σ t σ deterministic & independent of t df t dt = Af t + σ dw dt SPDE when A is a partial differential operator Integral form f t = f 0 t 0 Af s ds + σw (t)

60 Weak Form: for f H < f, f t >=< f, f 0 > t 0 < A f, f s > ds+ < σ f, W (t) > which makes sense when f belongs to the domain D(A ) of the adjoint operator A and the domain D(σ ) of the adjoint operator σ. Very seldom tractable Evolution Form (variation of constant formula): f t = e ta f 0 + t 0 e (t s)s σdw (s) This requires that the exponentials of operators exist, i.e. that A generates a semigroup of operators. 14/17
