    Ball maps form a distinguished subset of the space of noncommutative analytic functions on a noncommutative domain. The class of NC analytic functions is a class of functions defined by power series in noncommuting variables. In this paper, some new results on noncommutative ball maps are given. The paper is organized in nine sections. In the first section, various NC functions are presented and some of the main results are stated, especially the result on NC ball maps which map 0 to 0. Also, two types of generalizations are considered, the first being to balls defined by linear matrix inequalities, and the second being to NC analytic maps carrying special sets on the boundary of a ball to the boundary of a ball. In the second section, models for NC contractions are analysed, while in the third one, NC isometries are studied. The fourth section is dedicated to the proof of the main result presented in the first section. In the fifth section, basic properties of linear fractional maps are given, and in the sixth section several basic facts about NC analytic functions on the ball are presented. In the seventh section, it is shown that the semi-distinguished ball maps, introduced in the first section, have very distinctive linear parts, and then properties of these linear maps are given. A characterization of semi-distinguished ball maps is given in a theorem from the eight section, while in the last section, an analysis of distinguished isometries is made.
