Topological classification of billiards bounded by confocal quadrics in three-dimensional Euclidean space

We study billiards on compact connected domains in bounded by a finite number of confocal quadrics meeting in dihedral angles equal to . Billiards in such domains are integrable due to having three first integrals in involution inside the domain. We introduce two equivalence relations: combinatorial equivalence of billiard domains determined by the structure of their boundaries, and weak equivalence of the corresponding billiard systems on them. Billiard domains in are classified with respect to combinatorial equivalence, resulting in 35 pairwise nonequivalent classes. For each of these obtained classes, we look for the homeomorphism class of the nonsingular isoenergy 5-manifold, and we show this to be one of three types: either , or , or . We obtain 24 classes of pairwise nonequivalent (with respect to weak equivalence) Liouville foliations of billiards on these domains restricted to a nonsingular energy level. We also define bifurcation atoms of three-dimensional tori corresponding to the arcs of the bifurcation diagram. Bibliography: 59 titles.
