Starting with an initial price vector, prices are adjusted in order to eliminate the demand excess and at the same time to keep the transfers to the sellers as low as possible. In each step of the auction, to which sellers should those transfers be made (minimal overdemanded sets) is the key...

In this paper we estimate aggregate matching functions taking advantage of a rich data base that enables us to compute … observations on the variables in the matching function at (virtually) any frequency to assess the importance of the time … aggregation problem. We also generate stocks, outflows and inflows of vacancies and job seekers to shed light on the importance of …

This paper considers a frictional market where buyers and sellers, with unit demand and supply, search for trading opportunities. The analysis focuses on explicit search frictions, allows for two-sided incomplete information, and puts no restriction on agent heterogeneity. In this context, a...

We propose a way to model firm mergers using a matching game known as the roommate problem, whereby firms are assumed … indices used in standard discrete-choice models. Given all firms' preferences, game-theoretic mechanisms lead to a matching …

Immaterial information products (“content”) can be represented in digital form, which is anadvantage but also a source of problems. It is fundamentally impossible to prevent copyingof digital data, which is just a stream of bits – ones and zeros: Once you can read it, you cancopy it. With...

We suggest a simple asset market model in which we analyze competitive and strategic behavior simultaneously. If two-fund separation is found to hold across periods for competitive behavior, it also holds for strategic behavior. In this case the relative prices of the assets do not depend on...

We study how the framework of classical game theory changes when the preferences of the players are described by Prospect Theory instead of Expected Utility Theory. Specifically, we study the influence of framing effect and probability weighting on the existence and specific structure of Nash...
