(n2) algorithm (where n = |A B|) for the popular matching problem in this model. Note that this model is quite different … matching M is popular if there is no matching M' such that the number of vertices that prefer M' to M exceeds the number of … vertices that prefer M to M'. We show that the problem of deciding whether G admits a popular matching or not is NP-hard. This …

Using U.S. cross-sectional data, this paper calculates the welfare cost of a 10% inflation for different individuals and finds that the difference in cost between the poorest 10%, measured by their expenditure share on cash goods, and the richest 10% is in the order of 176%. That is, a poor...

In this paper, we consider a one-to-one matching model with two phases; an adolescence phase where individuals meet a … number of dates and learn about their aspirations, followed by a matching phase where individuals are matched according to a … version of Gale and Shapley's (1962) deferred acceptance (DA) algorithm. Using simulations of this model, we study how the …
