Centralized Matching with Incomplete Information
- (pp. 18-33)
Abstract
We study the impacts of incomplete information on centralized one-to-one matching markets. We focus on the commonly used Deferred Acceptance mechanism (Gale and Shapley 1962). We show that many complete-information results are fragile to a small infusion of uncertainty about others' preferences.Citation
