EMS Series of Congress Reports, 305-331 (2012). The authors show that the stacks resulting from the E. Lerman and S. Tolman construction [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 349, No. 10, 4201–4230 (1997; Zbl 0897.58016)] construction (the refinement of T. Delzant construction [Bull. Soc. Math. Fr. 116, No. 3, 315–339 (1988; Zbl 0676.58029)] for rational but not necessarily smooth polytopes) are isomorphic to the stacks obtained by L. A. Borisov, L. Chen and G. G. Smith [J. Am. Math. Soc. 18, No. 1, 193–215 (2005; Zbl 1178.14057)] when the stacky fan is induced by a polytope. The authors also aim to give an example oriented introduction to symplectic toric geometry for a broader audience.For the entire collection see [Zbl 1245.14003].
