I develop a matching model with heterogeneous workers, firms, and worker-firm matches, and apply it to longitudinal … truncated. I test predictions from the matching model using data from the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD … structures, including the martingale hypothesis implied by the learning process. I find considerable support for the matching …

This work introduces a rigorous set-theoretic foundation of bilateral matching mechanisms and studies their properties … in a systematic manner. By providing a unified framework to study ilateral matching mechanisms, we formalize how … different spatial/informational constraints can be implemented via a careful selection of matching mechanisms. In particular …

We consider a model where bidders in an auction own passive partial claims over their rivals’ auction profits. While …-value auction, we find that such cross ownership has an effect similar to reducing the number of bidders while holding constant the … distribution of the highest value in the auction. A similar decrease in competition occurs in independent private-value second …

Admati and Perry (1987) derive the equilibrium in a bargaining game between a seller and buyer when the buyer's valuation is private information. They show that, for some parameter values, trade occurs at the Rubinstein (1982) prices given the buyer's true valuation (pl if the buyer has a low...

To investigate players' incentives in coalition formation, we consider a legislative bargaining game with asymmetric information about time preferences. The force that does not exist in usual bargaining games with unanimity is that due to majority rule, if a player signals himself as the patient...
