Abstract: Generalising a seminal result of Epstein and Penner for cusped hyperbolic manifolds, Cooper and Long showed that each decorated strictly convex projective cusped manifold has a canonical cell decomposition. Penner used the former result to describe a natural cell decomposition of decorated Teichm"uller space of punctured surfaces. We extend this cell decomposition to the moduli space of decorated strictly convex projective structures of finite volume on punctured surfaces. The proof uses Fock and Goncharov's -coordinates for doubly decorated structures. In addition, we describe a simple, intrinsic edge-flipping algorithm to determine the canonical cell decomposition associated to a point in moduli space, and show that Penner's centres of Teichm"uller cells are also natural centres of the cells in moduli space. We show that in many cases, the associated holonomy groups are semi-arithmetic.
