Structural adjustment and endogenous worker recall probabilities
Meland, Frode; Torsvik, Gaute - 2002
In this paper we investigate the incentives of unemployed workers to wait for a recall when recall probabilities are endogenously determined by the waiting decisions of others. Because of a positive externality that arises when workers seek new employment, an excessive number of workers choose...

Directed search in the housing market
Albrecht, James W.; Gautier, Pieter; Vroman, Susan B. - 2009
In this paper, we present a directed search model of the housing market. The pricing mechanism we analyze reflects the …. Our model offers a new way to look at the housing market from a search-theoretic perspective. In addition, we contribute … to the directed search literature by considering a model in which the asking price (i) entails only limited commitment …

Matching with Incomplete Information : Stability and Efficiency
Feng, Zhiming - 2021
This paper extends the discussion of the relationship between Bayesian stability and Bayesian efficiency in Liu(2020). We focus on the worst possible case for workers, in which firms offer workers wages exactly opposite to workers’ initial payoffs, so that workers will always enjoy a zero...

Persuasion as Matching
Kolotilin, Anton; Corrao, Roberto; Wolitzky, Alexander - 2022
In persuasion problems where the receiver's action is one-dimensional and his utility is single-peaked, optimal signals are characterized by duality, based on a first-order approach to the receiver's problem. A signal is optimal if and only if the induced joint distribution over states and...
