“…It is also an interesting topic to model an arbitrary ordered billiard game [100] in the plane as the projection of trajectories of a ball traversing an algorithmically constructed billiard book: see [137]. For some of such book the Fomenko invariants (markless molecules) were also calculated in that paper.…”

The survey is devoted to the class of integrable Hamiltonian systems and the class of integrable billiard systems and to the recent results of the authors and their students on the problem of comparison of these classes from the point of view of leafwise homeomorphy of their Liouville foliations. The key tool here are billiards on piecewise planar CW-complexes - topological billiards and billiard books - introduced by Vedyushkina. A construction of the class of evolutionary (force) billiards, introduced recently by Fomenko, is presented, enabling one to model a system in several non-singular energy ranges by a single billiard system, and the use of this class for geodesic flows on two-dimensional surfaces and some systems in mechanics is demonstrated. Some other integrable generalizations of classical billiard systems, including billiards with potentials, billiards in magnetic fields, and billiards with slipping, are discussed. Billiard books with Hooke potentials glued of planar confocal or circular tables, model four-dimensional semilocal singularities of Liouville foliations for integrable systems that contain non-degenerate equilibria. Considering the intersections of several confocal quadrics in $\mathbb{R}^n$ results in a generalization of the Jacobi-Chasles theorem. Bibliography: 144 titles.
