AbstractWe investigate the term structure of zero coupon bonds, in the case where the forward rate evolves as a Wiener sheet. We introduce a definition of stochastic integral with respect to a continuous semimartingale with values in the set of continuous functions and characterize the dynamics of the zero coupon bonds. We also define a notion of generalized strategy, in order to admit the (theoretical) possibility of investing in a continuum of bonds. Finally we study the problem of utility maximization from terminal wealth in this setting and deduce a "mutual fund" theorem.
