A toric domain is a subset of
which is invariant under the standard rotation action of

domain
from
a certain large class for which this action is not free, we find a corresponding toric domain
where the standard action
is free and for which

any symplectic capacity

Michael Hutchings gives a combinatorial formula for calculating his embedded
contact homology symplectic capacities for certain toric four-manifolds on which the
-action
is free. Our theorem allows one to extend this formula to a class of toric domains
where the action is not free. We apply our theorem to compute ECH capacities
for certain intersections of ellipsoids and find that these capacities give sharp
obstructions to symplectically embedding these ellipsoid intersections into balls.
