Learning by matching

YC Chen, G Hu - Theoretical Economics, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
This paper studies a stability notion and matching processes in the job market with
incomplete information on the workers' side. Each worker is associated with a type, and …

Wisdom and foolishness of noisy matching markets

K Peng, N Garg - arXiv preprint arXiv:2402.16771, 2024 - arxiv.org
We consider a many-to-one matching market where colleges share true preferences over
students but make decisions using only independent noisy rankings. Each student has a …

Informational Size in School Choice

D Feng, Y Liu - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.11273, 2024 - arxiv.org
This paper introduces a novel measurement of informational size to school choice problems,
which inherits its ideas from Mount and Reiter (1974). This concept measures a matching …

School choice with costly information acquisition

T Maxey - Games and Economic Behavior, 2024 - Elsevier
I study a model of centralized school choice in which students engage in costly search over
schools before submitting preference reports to a clearinghouse. I consider three classes of …

Partner Choice and Morality: Preference Evolution under Stable Matching

Z Wang, J Wu - arXiv preprint arXiv:2304.11504, 2023 - arxiv.org
We present a model that investigates preference evolution with endogenous matching. In
the short run, individuals' subjective preferences simultaneously determine who they choose …

The Structure of Bayesian Stable Matchings

G Hu - Available at SSRN 4910284, 2024 - papers.ssrn.com
Stability is a central concept in matching theory. We investigate the set of stable matchings in
a general environment that can accommodate both complete and incomplete information …

[PDF][PDF] Cooperative Analysis of Incomplete Information

Q Liu - Available at SSRN 4632781, 2023 - papers.ssrn.com
We propose a theory of cooperative games with incomplete information. The theory
concerns stable interactions that cannot be undermined by coalitions and is built on a …

Not all is lost: Sorting and self-stabilizing sets

E Peralta - Games and Economic Behavior, 2024 - Elsevier
It is well known that in the absence of transfers, stable matchings are positive assortative
when agents' preferences are strictly monotonic in each other's types and types are …

Altruistic Bandit Learning For One-to-Many Matching Markets

PR Saha, S Choudhury, K Salomaa - Proceedings of the 2024 …, 2024 - dl.acm.org
The decision-making of the agents in a matching is led by their preferences. Two-sided
matching with known preferences of the agents has been studied for a long time. Present …

The structure of Bayesian stable matchings

YC Chen, G Hu - Available at SSRN 4862233, 2024 - papers.ssrn.com
Incomplete information can invalidate standard results on stable matchings, such as the
celebrated lone-wolf theorem, lattice theorem, and the comparative statics following new …
