We show how frictions and continuous transfers jointly affect equilibria in a model of matching in trading networks …

This paper studies a decentralized, dynamic matching and bargaining market: buyers and sellers are matched into pairs … static results of the decentralized trading outcome with respect to the level of the search frictions. -- Dynamic Matching …

Steady state equilibria in heterogeneous agent matching models with search frictions have been shown to exist in Shimer … investigated linear search technology. -- Search ; Matching ; Steady State Equilibrium …

The matching of likes is a frequently observed phenomenon. However, for such assortative matching to arise in a search … can generate even perfect assortative matching under weak conditions: supermodularity of the match production function is … the model achieves nearly unconstrained efficiency despite frictions. -- Assortative matching ; sorting ; search ; signals …

It is known that in two-sided many-to-many matching markets, pair-wise stability is not logically related with the … (weak) core, unlike in many-to-one matching markets (Blair, 1988). In this paper, we seek a theoretical foundation for …-partner matching problem that includes two-sided matching problems as special cases. Under the same preference restriction, we also …
