In the context of the Beckerian theory of marriage, when men and women match on a single-dimensional index that is the weighted sum of their respective multivariate attributes, many papers in the literature have used linear canonical correlation, and related techniques, in order to estimate...

We analyze the effects of taxation in two-sided matching markets where agents have heterogeneous preferences over … potential partners. Our model provides a continuous link between models of matching with and without transfers. Taxes generate …

We investigate a model of one-to-one matching with transferable utility when some of the characteristics of the players … separability assumption that generalizes Choo and Siow (2006). We first show that the stable matching maximizes a social gain … the impact of matching on unobserved characteristics. We use this result to derive simple closed-form formulæ that …
