Stacky Hamiltonian Actions and Symplectic Reduction

We introduce the notion of a Hamiltonian action of an \'etale Lie group stack on an \'etale symplectic stack and establish versions of the Kirwan convexity theorem, the Meyer-Marsden-Weinstein symplectic reduction theorem, and the Duistermaat-Heckman theorem in this context.
