A Theory of Targeted Search [PDF]

open access: possibleFederal Reserve Bank of Dallas, Working Papers, 2014
We present a theory of targeted search, where people with a nite information processing capacity search for a match. Our theory explicitly accounts for both the quantity and the quality of matches. It delivers a unique equilibrium that resides in between the random matching and the directed search outcomes. The equilibrium that emerges from this middle

Search and Consumer Theory

The Review of Economic Studies, 1982
A consumer faces list prices for commodities, but can buy one at a discount. Discounts vary randomly between sellers. The number of quotations sought depends on list prices, search costs and wealth. This function is homogeneous of degree zero, and, provided some sufficient conditions are satisfied, is; increasing in wealth; decreasing in search cost ...

Biometrika, 1971
SUMMARY Stochastic models are developed to study the success of a search by what is termed a predator for randomly or contagiously located points, called prey. The model is specified by giving the distribution of the searching time to locate a prey, school or cluster of prey and the joint distribution of handling time and numbers caught from each ...

Theory of Local Search

2017
Local search is a widely used method to solve combinatorial optimization problems. As many relevant combinatorial optimization problems are NP-hard, we often may not expect to find an algorithm that is guaranteed to return an optimal solution in a reasonable amount of time, i.e., in polynomial time.
