On the Survival of Some Unstable Two-Sided Matching Mechanisms : An Experimental and Computational Investigation of the Stability Hypothesis

Ünver, M. Utku - 2001

dates in two-sided matching markets inspired by the entry-level professional labor markets for medical interns in Britain … acceptance mechanism in preventing early contracts in the experiment although it performs better than the priority matching …

Pairwise preferences in the stable marriage problem

Cseh, Ágnes; Juhos, Attila - 2020

We study the classical, two-sided stable marriage problem under pairwise preferences. In the most generalsetting, agents are allowed to express their preferences as comparisons of any two of their edges and they alsohave the right to declare a draw or even withdraw from such a comparison. This...

The stable marriage problem with ties and restricted edges

Cseh, Ágnes; Heeger, Klaus - 2020

preference list over the acceptable agents in the opposite class. A matching is called stable if it is not blocked by any pair of … definitions for a stable matching: weak, strong and super-stability. Besides this, acceptable pairs in the instance can be … restricted in their ability of blocking a matching or being part of it, which again generates three categories of restrictions on …

Paths to stable allocations

Cseh, Ágnes; Skutella, Martin - 2018

The stable allocation problem is one of the broadest extensions of the well-known stable marriage problem. In an allocation problem, edges of a bipartite graph have capacities and vertices have quotas to fill. Here we investigate the case of uncoordinated processes in stable allocation...

Welfare and Strategic Externalities in Matching Markets with Interviews

Skancke, Erling - 2021

Recent debate in the medical literature has brought attention to issues with the pre-match interview process for residency and fellowship positions at hospitals. However, little is known about the economics of this decentralized process. In this paper, I build a game-theoretic model in which...

Identification in matching games

Fox, Jeremy T. - In: Quantitative economics : QE ; journal of the … 1 (2010) 2, pp. 203-254

Strong convergence and dynamic economic models

Bray, Robert L. - In: Quantitative economics : QE ; journal of the … 10 (2019) 1, pp. 43-65

Morton and Wecker (1977) stated that the value iteration algorithm solves a dynamic program's policy function faster than its value function when the limiting Markov chain is ergodic. I show that their proof is incomplete, and provide a new proof of this classic result. I use this result to...

Random coefficients in static games of complete information

Dunker, Fabian; Hoderlein, Stefan; Kaido, Hiroaki - 2013

Individual players in a simultaneous equation binary choice model act differently in different environments in ways that are frequently not captured by observables and a simple additive random error. This paper proposes a random coefficient specification to capture this type of heterogeneity in...

Strategic interaction model with censored strategies

Jenish, Nazgul - In: Econometrics : open access journal 3 (2015) 2, pp. 412-442

In this paper, we develop a new model of a static game of incomplete information with a large number of players. The model has two key distinguishing features. First, the strategies are subject to threshold effects, and can be interpreted as dependent censored random variables. Second, in...

Information structure and statistical information in discrete response models

Khan, Shakeeb; Nekipelov, Denis N. - In: Quantitative economics : QE ; journal of the … 9 (2018) 2, pp. 995-1017

Strategic interaction parameters characterize the impact of actions of one economic agent on the payoff of another economic agent, and are of great interest in both theoretical and empirical work. In this paper, by considering econometric models involving simultaneous discrete systems of...
