Matching on bipartite graphs
Gersbach, Hans; Haller, Hans - 2015 - This Version: September 2015
We study stable matchings on exogenously given or endogenously formed bipartite graphs that reflect constraints on matching. The effects of a change of the exogenously given graph (constraints) are investigated. Specifically, we examine to what extent individuals gain or lose from relaxing...

Transport subsidies, system choice, and urban sprawl
Brueckner, Jan K. - 2003
This paper analyzes the effect of transport subsidies on the spatial expansion of cities, asking whether subsidies are a source of undesirable urban sprawl. While the cost-reducing effect of transport subsidies is offset by a higher general tax burden (which reduces the demand for space), the...

Experiments and simulations on day-to-day route choice-behaviour
Selten, Reinhard; Schreckenberg, Michael; Pitz, Thomas; … - 2003
The paper reports laboratory experiments on a day-to-day route choice game with two routes. Subjects had to choose between a main road M and a side road S. The capacity was greater for the main road. 18 subjects participated in each session. In equilibrium the number of subjects is 12 on M and 6...

The implications of the new Silk Road railways on local development
Fang, Ling; Kleimann, Martin; Li, Yuan; Schmerer, Hans-Jörg - 2019
This paper studies regional treatment effects of infrastructure projects on economic growth, employment and intermodal transport volumes. The recent Belt and Road Initiative provides an experiment that can be evaluated using matching econometrics. Our results show that the establishment of a new...

Simultaneous search and network efficiency
Gautier, Pieter; Holzner, Christian - 2011
When workers send applications to vacancies they create a network. Frictions arise if workers do not know where other … workers apply to (this affects network creation) and firms do not know which candidates other firms consider (this affects … network clearing). We show that those frictions and the wage mechanism are in general not independent. Equilibria that exhibit …
