Normal functions and Bloch functions are respectively functions of bounded spherical expansion and bounded Euclidean expansion. In this paper we discuss the behaviour of normal functions and of Bloch functions in terms of the maximal ideal space of H∞, the Bergman projection and the Ahlfors-Shimizu characteristic.
