On the Number of Employed in the Matching Model
Kitahara, Minoru - 2019
largest one among the matchings in which no agent can be better off by itself. We show that, in the one-to-one matching model …, the number of matches in any stable matching is more than or equal to the smallest integer that is not less than half of … the benchmark number. This result is satisfied even if "stable matching" is replaced by "efficient matching". We extend …

Inefficient Unemployment and Bargaining Friction
