We develop a model of assignment games with pairwise-identity-dependent externalities. A concept of conjectural equilibrium is proposed, and the universal conjecture is shown to be the necessary and sufficient condition for the general existence of equilibrium. We then apply the solution concept...

This paper examines the efficiency of stable matchings in a framework of general equilibrium. In my model of a large private competitive economy, firms and managers form partnerships in an upstream labor (matching) market and then firm-manager pairs compete in a downstream goods market. I find...
