We introduce the following classes of integrable billiards: elementary billiards, topological, books, with potential, magnetic field, geodesic billiards. These classes are used to test the A.T. Fomenko conjecture about the realizability up to Liouville equivalence by billiards of integrable non-degenerate Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. In the class of book billiards found topological obstacles to realizability.

AbstractWe prove that all Liouville's tori generic bifurcations of a large class of two degrees of freedom integrable Hamiltonian systems (the so called Jacobi–Moser– Mumford systems) are nondegenerate in the sense of Bott. Thus, for such systems, Fomenko's theory [4] can be applied (we give the example of Gel'fand–Dikii's system). We also check the Bott property for two interesting systems: the Lagrange top and the geodesic flow on an ellipsoid.
