We calculate the \stackrel\ensuremath→BD(*) form factors in the heavy-quark and large-recoil limits in the perturbative QCD framework based on the kT factorization theorem, assuming the hierachy MB\ensuremath≫M_D(*)\ensuremath≫\ensuremathΛ, with the B meson mass MB, the D(*) meson mass M_D(*), and the heavy meson and heavy quark mass difference \ensuremathΛ. The qualitative behavior of the light-cone D(*) meson wave function and the associated Sudakov resummation are derived. The leading-power contributions to the \stackrel\ensuremath→BD(*) form factors, characterized by the scale \ensuremathΛ√MB/M_D(*), respect the heavy-quark symmetry. The next-to-leading-power corrections in 1/MB and 1/M_D(*), characterized by a scale larger than √\ensuremathΛMB, are estimated to be less than 20%. The D(*) meson wave function is determined from the fit to the observed \stackrel\ensuremath→BD(*)l\ensuremathν decay spectrum, which can be employed to make predictions for nonleptonic decays, such as \stackrel\ensuremath→BD(*)\ensuremathπ(\ensuremathρ).
