We will review the recent (and not so recent) results on dynamics of piecewise isometries (especially piecewise translations), both in one and in higher dimensional case. Some interesting results (by Suzuki, Goetz, Zhuravlev, Boshernitzan, Bruin, Troubetzkoy, Buzzi) are known, but most of natural questions are still open. The main goal of the talk is to expose these open questions to potential researchers.
