In engineering, physics and economics, many dynamical systems involving with stochastic components and random noise are often modeled by stochastic models. The stochastic effects of these models are often used to describe the uncertainty about the operating systems. Motivated by the development of analysis and theory of stochastic processes, as well as the studies of natural sciences, the theory of stochastic differential equations in infinite dimensional spaces evolves gradually into a branch of modern analysis. Many qualitative properties of such systems have been studied in the past few decades, among which, investigation of stability of such systems is often regarded as the first characteristic of the dynamical systems or models. In general, this thesis is mainly concerned with the studies of the stability property of stochastic differential equations in Hilbert spaces. Chapter 1 is an introduction to a brief history of stochastic differential equations in infinite dimensions, together with an overview of the studies. Chapter 2 is a presentation of preliminaries to some basic stochastic analysis. In Chapter 3, we study the stability in distribution of mild solutions to stochastic delay differential equations with Poisson jumps. Firstly, we use approximation of strong solutions to pass on the stability of strong solutions to the mild ones. Then, by constructing a suitable metric between the transition probability functions of mild solutions, we obtain the desired stability result under some suitable conditions. In Chapter 4, we investigate the stochastic partial delay differential equations with Markovian switching and Poisson jumps. By estimating the coefficients of energy equality, both the exponential stability and almost sure exponential stability of energy solutions to the equations are obtained. In Chapter 5, we study the relationship among strong, weak and mild solutions to the stochastic functional differential equations of neutral type. Finally, in Chapter 6, we study the asymptotic stability of two types of equations, impulsive stochastic delay differential equations with Poisson jumps and stochastic evolution equations with Poisson jumps. By employing the fixed point theorem, we derive the desired stability results under some criteria.
