These equations represent a class of in nite-dimensional stochastic s- tems that become increasingly important and have wide range of applications in physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, and economics/ nance. The wide applicability of these systems is due to the fact that the reaction of re- world systems to exogenous e ects/signals is never 'instantaneous' and it needs some time, time that can be translated into a mathematical language by some delay terms. Therefore, to describe these delayed e ects, the drift and di usion coe cients of these stochastic equations depend not only on the current state but also explicitly on the past history of the state variable. The theory developed herein extends the nite-dimensional HJB theory of controlled di usion processes to its in nite-dimensional counterpart for c- trolledSHDEsinwhichacertainin nite-dimensionalBanachspaceorHilbert space is critically involved in order to account for the bounded or unbounded memory. Another type of in nite-dimensional HJB theory that is not treated in this monograph but arises from real-world application problems can often be modeled by controlled stochastic partial di erential equations. Although they are both in nite dimensional in nature and are both in the infancy of their developments, the SHDE exhibits many characteristics that are not in common with stochastic partial di erential equations. Consequently, the HJB theory for controlled SHDEs is parallel to and cannot betreated as a subset of the theory developed for controlled stochastic partial di erential equations.
