HDLC is used on point-to-pont serial links suc as T1s, DS3 and now
Packet-over-SONET (POS). It has a low overhead in terms of the
additional bytes required over and above the layer 3 payload. There is
no authentication protocol for HDLC.
PPP was and is heavily used in async dial-up and provide for
authentication using PAP or CHAP protocol. Now there is also PPP over
Ethernet (PPPoE).
A variation of PPP known as multi-link PPP (MLPPP) is quite popular for
loading balancing parallet circuit like T1's.

On routers, hdlc is the default encapsulation method available on interfaces. It doesnt provide authentication while ppp provides authentication so can be used isdn configs.
