In matching markets, the existence of stable matchings can only be guaranteed under substantive restrictions on preferences. We investigate how these results change in large markets, which we model with a continuum of agents of each type, following the work of Aumann (1964) on general...

Since no stable matching mechanism can induce truth-telling as a dominant strategy for all participants, there is often room in matching markets for strategic misrepresentation (Roth). In this paper we study a natural form of strategic misrepresentation: reporting a truncation of one's true...

Different markets are cleared by different types of prices—seller-specific prices that are uniform across buyers in some markets, and personalized prices tailored to the buyer in others. We examine a setting in which buyers and sellers make investments before matching in a competitive market....

How does information get revealed in decentralized markets? We test several hypotheses inspired by recent dealer-network theory. To do so we construct an empirical map of information revelation where two dealers are connected based on the synchronicity of their quote changes. The tests, based on...

This paper examines security design in imperfectly competitive markets in which assets clear separately rather than jointly. Derivatives are generally nonredundant even with zero asset supply. We characterize the scope for introducing nonredundant derivatives and examine the welfare effects of...

In this paper, we analyze equilibrium in incomplete markets of random endowments by adopting utility indifference pricing and utility-based pricing. Addressing model uncertainty, we also consider agents who adopt max/min expected utility and a risk management policy. Using this framework, we...

In the study we explore an oligopoly market for equilibrium and stability based on statistical data with the help of response functions rather than payoff maximization. To achieve this, we extend the concept of coupled fixed points to triple fixed points. We propose a new model that leads to...

We investigate competitive equilibria in a special type of incomplete markets, referred to as a comonotone market, where agents can only trade such that their risk allocation is comonotonic. The comonotone market is motivated by the no-sabotage condition. For instance, in a standard insurance...

In general screening problems, implementable allocation rules correspond exactly to Walrasian equilibria of an economy in which types are consumers with quasilinear utility and unit demand. Due to the welfare theorems, an allocation rule is implementable if and only if it induces an efficient...
