The motion of a classical pointlike particle in a two-dimensional periodic potential with negative coulombic singularities is examined. This motion is shown to be Bernoullian for many potentials and high enough energies. Then the motion on the plane is a diffusion process. All such motions are topologically conjugate and the periodic orbits can be analysed with the help of a group.
