Classification of Liouville foliations of integrable topological billiards in magnetic fields

The topology of the Liouville foliations of integrable magnetic topological billiards, systems in which a ball moves on piecewise smooth two-dimensional surfaces in a constant magnetic field, is considered. The Fomenko-Zieschang invariants of Liouville equivalence are calculated for the Hamiltonian systems arising, and the topology of invariant 3-manifolds, isointegral and isoenergy ones, is investigated. The Liouville equivalence of such billiards to some known Hamiltonian systems is discovered, for instance, to the geodesic flows on 2-surfaces and to systems of rigid body dynamics. In particular, peculiar saddle singularities are discovered in which singular circles have different orientations — such systems were also previously encountered in mechanical systems in a magnetic field on surfaces of revolution homeomorphic to a 2-sphere.
