Studying the interaction between preference and capacity manipulation in matching markets, we prove that acyclicity is a necessary and su!cient condition that guarantees the stability of a Nash equilibrium and the strategy-proofness of truthful capacity revelation under the hospital-optimal and...

This paper analyzes the role of acyclicity in singleton cores. We show that the absence of simultaneous cycles is a sufficient condition for the existence of singleton cores. Furthermore, acyclicity in the preferences of either side of the market is a minimal condition that guarantees the...

In this paper, we present a model of implementation where infeasible allocations are converted into feasible ones through a process of renegotiation that is represented by a reversion function. We describe the maximal set of Social Choice Correspondences that can be implemented in Nash...

Proposers strategically formulate legislative bills before voting takes place. However, spatial voting models that estimate legislator’s ideological preferences do not explicitly consider this fact. In our model, proposers determine the ideology and valence of legislative bills to maximize...

We study the consequences of bilateral market mergers. We first characterize the relationship between the M-optimal stable matching in the original markets with the M-optimal stable matching in the new market formed after the merger of the original markets. Then, we characterize the conditions...

In this study we present a simple mechanism in a many-to-one matching market where multiple costless applications are allowed. The mechanism is based on the principles of eligibility and priority and it implements the set of stable matchings in Subgame Perfect Nash Equilibrium. We extend the...

Analizamos el diseño del Programa Ramón y Cajal para la incorporación de investigadores de calidad a centros de investigación españoles. Se conjetura como hipótesis de partida que el programa cambió su diseño tras las primeras convocatorias en respuesta a las necesidades de los agentes...
