Using the French data set “2002 Employment Surveyâ€?, this paper aims to shed light on the nature of the gender … parametric estimates. The parametric decomposition of the gender wage gap is run following various assumptions on the ââ … specification errors. Secondly, the gender earnings gap is measured at the mean, thereby ignoring the differences in the form of the …

This work introduces a rigorous set-theoretic foundation of bilateral matching mechanisms and studies their properties … in a systematic manner. By providing a unified framework to study ilateral matching mechanisms, we formalize how … different spatial/informational constraints can be implemented via a careful selection of matching mechanisms. In particular …
