We introduce the notion of group robust stability which requires robustness against a combined manipulation, first … misreporting preferences and then rematching, by any group of students in the school choice type of matching markets. Our first … version of group robust stability, called weak group robust stability. Our main theorem, then, proves that there is a weakly …

The absence of simultaneous cycles is a sufficient condition for the existence of singleton cores. Acyclicity in the …

We study problems of allocating objects among people. Some objects may be initially owned and the rest are unowned. Each person needs exactly one object and initially owns at most one object. We drop the common assumption of strict preferences. Without this assumption, it suffices to study...

This paper considers marriage problems, roommate problems with nonempty core, and college admissions problems with responsive preferences. All stochastically stable matchings are shown to be contained in the set of matchings which are most robust to one-shot deviation.

We introduce a matching model in which agents engage in joint ventures via multilateral contracts. This approach allows … us to consider production complementarities previously outside the scope of matching theory. We show analogues of the …

This paper inspires from a real-life assignment problem faced by the Mexican Ministry of Public Education. We introduce a dynamic school choice problem that consists in assigning positions to overlapping generations of teachers. From one period to another, teachers can either retain their...
