This paper adds two-sided ex-ante heterogeneity and a production technology inducing sorting to the canonical Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides (DMP) search and matching model. Ex-ante heterogeneity and sorting have important implications for the dynamic properties of the model. The modifications...

This factor provides enough structure to prevent arbitrary … splitting of unemployment outflows between employment and inactivity. In turn, the estimated job search factor can be used in a …
