Using a geometric method, we characterize all entire functions that transform the Bloch space into a Bergman space by superposition in terms of their order and type. We also prove that all superposition operators induced by such entire functions act boundedly. Similar results hold for superpositions from BMOA into Bergman spaces and from the Bloch space into certain weighted Hardy spaces.

A general framework for constructions of endoscopy correspondences via automorphic integral transforms for classical groups is formulated in terms of the Arthur classification of the discrete spectrum of square-integrable automorphic forms, which is called the Principle of Endoscopy Correspondences, extending the well-known Howe Principle of Theta Correspondences. This suggests another principle, called the (τ, b)-theory of automorphic forms of classical groups, to reorganize and extend the series of work of Piatetski- Shapiro, Rallis, Kudla and others on standard L-functions of classical groups and theta correspondence.

An expansion is developed for the Weil-Petersson Riemann curvature tensor in the thin region of the Teichm¨uller and moduli spaces. The tensor is evaluated on the gradients of geodesiclengths for disjoint geodesics. A precise lower bound for sectional curvature in terms of the surface systole is presented. The curvature tensor expansion is applied to establish continuity properties at the frontier strata of the augmented Teichm¨uller space. The curvature tensor has the asymptotic product structure already observed for the metric and covariant derivative. The product structure is combined with the earlier negative sectional curvature results to establish a classification of asymptotic flats. Furthermore, tangent subspaces of more than half the dimension of Teichm¨uller space contain sections with a definite amount of negative curvature. Proofs combine estimates for uniformization group exponential-distance sums and potential theory bounds.
