A punctured torus $\Sigma(1,1)$ is a building block of oriented surfaces. The goal of this paper is to formulate the matrix presentations of elements of the Teichmuller space of a punctured torus. Let $\cal{C}$ be a matrix presentation of the boundary component of $\Sigma(1,1)$.In the level of the matrix group $\mathbb{SL}$($\mathbb2,R$) we shall show that the trace of $\cal{C}$ is always negative.

A punctured torus ${\Sigma}$(1, 1) is a building block of oriented surfaces. In this paper we formulate the matrix presentations of elements of the Teichmuller space of a punctured torus using the matrix presentations of a pair of pants ${\Sigma}$(0, 3) and the gluing method.

In this paper we shall explicitly calculate the formula of the algebraic presentation of an embedding of the Teichmiiller space ${\Im}(M)$ into the Goldman space g(M). From this algebraic presentation, we shall show that the Goldman's length parameter on g(M) is an isometric extension of the Fenchel-Nielsen's length parameter on ${\Im}(M)$.

The deformation spaces of the six orientable 3-dimensional flat Riemannian manifolds are studies. It is proved that the Teichmuller spaces are homeomorphic to the Euclidean spaces. To state more precisely, let $\Phi$ denote the holonomy group of the manifold. Then the Teichmuller space is homeomorphic to (1) ${\mathbb{R}}^6\;if\;\Phi$ is trivial, (2) ${\mathbb{R}}^4\;if\;\Phi$ is cyclic with order two, (3) ${\mathbb{R}}^2\;if\;\Phi$ is cyclic of order 3, 4 or 6, and (4) ${\mathbb{R}}^3\;if\;\Phi\;\cong\;{\mathbb{Z}_2}\;\times\;{\mathbb{Z}_2}$.

A pair of pants $\Sigma(0,3)$ is a building block of oriented surfaces. The purpose of this paper is to formulate the matrix presentations of elements of the Teichmuller space of a pair of pants. In the level of the matrix group $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$, we shall show that an odd number of traces of matrix presentations of the generators of the fundamental group of $\Sigma(0,3)$ should be negative.

A convex $RP^n$-structure on a smooth anifold M is a representation of M as a quotient of a convex domain $\Omega \subset RP^n$ by a discrete group $\Gamma$ of collineations of $RP^n$ acting properly on $\Omega$. When M is a closed surface of genus g > 1, then the equivalence classes of such structures form a moduli space $B(M)$ homeomorphic to an open cell of dimension 16(g-1) (Goldman [2]). This cell contains the Teichmuller space $T(M)$ of M and it is of interest to know what of the rich geometric structure extends to $B(M)$. In [3], a symplectic structure on $B(M)$ is defined, which extends the symplectic structure on $T(M)$ defined by the Weil-Petersson Kahler form.
