Quantile stable mechanisms


Chen, Peter; Egesdal, Michael; Pycia, Marek; Yenmez, M Bumin; Pycia, Marek G (2021). Quantile stable mechanisms. Games, 12(2):43.

Abstract

We introduce a new class of matching mechanisms—quantile stable mechanisms—that generate stable matchings that can be seen as a compromise between sides of a two-sided market. We show that responsiveness is a sufficient condition for the existence of such mechanisms and that all such mechanisms are distinct. We also analyze the manipulability of these mechanisms by market participants.
