... We use the graph description of coordinates on Teichmuller spaces of Riemann surfaces with holes due to Penner and Fock. ... The Goldman's Poisson structure can be recovered; its quantum deformation enables us to introduce noncommutative Teichmuller spaces and to construct the quantum mapping class group and quantum modular transformations. Using the geodesic spectral description, we can find a cell decomposition of Teichmuller (and moduli) spaces in the new coordinates. ...

We present a catalogue of galaxies for which spatially resolved data on their internal kinematics have been published; there is no apriori restriction regarding their morphological type. The catalogue lists the references to the articles where the data are published, as well as a coded description of these data: observed emission (E) or absorption (A) data, optical (O) or radio (R) data, velocity (V) or velocity dispersion (D), radial profile (1) or 2D field (2). ...
