the empirical literature estimating the matching function, commonly used to map unemployment and vacancies into hires …. First, we show how to non-parametrically identify the matching function. Second, we estimate the matching function allowing … for unobserved matching efficacy, without imposing the usual independence assumption between matching efficiency and …

, potentially complementary, input fixed. We introduce a class of such reallocations -- correlated matching rules -- that includes … the status quo allocation, a random allocation, and both the perfect positive and negative assortative matching …

Matching markets can be unstable when individuals prefer to be matched to a partner who also wants to be matched with … preferences exist, significantly decrease stability in matching markets, and are driven both by belief-based and preference …

individually rational matching, the matching has many good properties like Pareto optimality and stability. If preferences satisfy … matching. These properties guarantee also that the student proposing Deferred Acceptance algorithm (DA) and the Top Trading … Cycles algorithm (TTC) produce the same matching as IMB. We compare these results with some well-known results about when DA …
