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...

We examine how pre-play communication and clustering within networks affect coordination in a challenging … experimental game on eight-person networks. Free-form chat is enormously effective in achieving the non-equilibrium efficient …

We compare integration of economic, matching and networking markets. There can be losers from integration in all three cases, but their relative numbers depend on the type of market. There can be many losers from integration of pure exchange economies. There are relatively few losers from...
