Abstract
A punctured torus <TEX>$\Sigma(1,1)$</TEX> 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 <TEX>$\cal{C}$</TEX> be a matrix presentation of the boundary component of <TEX>$\Sigma(1,1)$</TEX>.In the level of the matrix group <TEX>$\mathbb{SL}$</TEX>(<TEX>$\mathbb2,R$</TEX>) we shall show that the trace of <TEX>$\cal{C}$</TEX> is always negative.
