This paper examines the competitive search equilibrium when the workers' effort choice and type are private information …. We derive a modified Hosios rule determining the allocation of resources and analyze how private information influences … the responsiveness of the unemployment rate to changes in macroeconomic variables. Most importantly, private information …

In a reasonably calibrated Mortensen and Pissarides matching model, shocks to average labor productivity can account …

We propose a spatial search-matching model where both job creation and job destruction are endogenous. Workers are ex …

We present sufficient conditions for monotone matching in environments where utility is not fully transferable between … study some models of risk sharing and incentive problems, deriving new results for predicted matching patterns in those …

propose a parsimonious search and matching model with two sided heterogeneity, where the choice of wage-setting protocol …, wages, search intensity, and degree of randomness in matching are endogenous. We find that posting and bargaining coexist as …
