Toric actions on b-symplectic manifolds

We study Hamiltonian actions on b-symplectic manifolds with a focus on the effective case of half the dimension of the manifold. In particular, we prove a Delzant-type theorem that classifies these manifolds using polytopes that reside in a certain enlarged and decorated version of the dual of the Lie algebra of the torus. At the end of the paper we suggest further avenues of study, including an example of a toric action on a b^2-manifold and applications of our ideas to integrable systems on b-manifolds.
