Abstract: | Multiplicity-free actions are symplectic manifolds with a very high degree of symmetry. Delzant 2] showed that all compact
multiplicity-free torus actions admit compatible K?hler structures, and are therefore toric varieties. In this note we show
that Delzant's result does not generalize to the non-abelian case. Our examples are constructed by applying U(2)-equivariant symplectic surgery to the flag variety U(3)/T
3. We then show that these actions fail a criterion which Tolman 9] shows is necessary for the existence of a compatible K?hler
structure.
