    The article presents a survey on Bloch constants for analytic, meromorphic and harmonic mappings of a single variable and several variables. Sections 1-5 are devoted to elementary concepts and results; Sections 6-8 deals with the Ahlfors lemma, the Julia lemma and related topics; Sections 9-10 are concerned with distortion theorems. In Sections 11-13 bounds of different Bloch constants are formulated. Section 14 deals with the ultrahyperbolic metric, Sections 15-17 are devoted to the Alhfors method to treat the spherical and hyperbolic Bloch constants. In Sections 18-19 the Bloch constants are introduced for harmonic mappings, quasiregular holomorphic mappings and Bloch mappings in several variables. Proofs of some theorems are given while some are only stated. A list of thirty nine relevant references is given. This survey article will be enormously helpful to a person interested to the theory of Bloch constants.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0972.00045].
