The unique equilibrium solution to a game in which a continuum of individual employers
choose permanent wage offers and a continuum of workers search by sequentially sampling
from the set of offers is characterized. Wage dispersion is a robust outcome provided that ...

It is shown that wquilibria with dispersed prices exist in environments with identical and
rational agents on both sides of the market. In particular, the original Stigler model of
nonsequential search often has many equilibria, some with price dispersion. Also, price ...

The purpose of this study is to develop and analyze a model of job search which allows for
the possibility of workers looking for a job while employed. Such a model leads to significant
generalizations of results already in the job search literature. Results obtained are then ...

Suppose that n buyers each want one unit and m sellers each have one or more units of a
good. Sellers post prices, and then buyers choose sellers. In symmetric equilibrium, similar
sellers all post one price, and buyers randomize. Hence, more or fewer buyers may arrive ...

Of course, marriage and employment are different. Nevertheless, a worker looking for a job,
a Ærm looking for worker, or a single person looking for a marriage partner face similar
problems as all are seeking a long-term partner. Indeed, forming long-term partnerships is ...

This paper examines the consequences of a change in unemployment insurance payments.

ABSTRACT The presence of matching frictions in the form of lags in the arrival of information
about the availability and terms of job offers unifies the labor market models analyzed in this
study. Each model presented is related to a perfectly competitive counterpart in a natural ...

The paper has two purposes:(1) to extend the theory of job search to include the case in

We analyze a two-sided search model in which we assume utility is not perfectly
