In this thesis we use techniques from white noise analysis to study solutions of semilinear stochastic differential equations in a Hilbert space H: {dX[subscript]t = (AX[subscript]t + F(t,X[subscript]t)) dt + ơ(t,X[subscript]t) δB[subscript]t, t∈ (0,T], X[subscript]0 = ξ, where A is a generator of either a C[subscript]0-semigroup or an n-times integrated semigroup, and B is a cylindrical Wiener process. We then consider applications to forward interest rate models, such as in the Heath-Jarrow-Morton framework. We also reformulate a phenomenological model of the forward rate. / Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Mathematical Science, 2009
