Stable marriage with incomplete lists and ties [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The original stable marriage problem requires all men and women to submit a complete and strictly ordered preference list. This is obviously often unrealistic in practice, and several relaxations have been proposed, including the following two common ...

The exchange-stable marriage problem [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2005
In this paper we consider instances of stable matching problems, namely the classical stable marriage (SM) and stable roommates (SR) problems and their variants. In such instances we consider a stability criterion that has recently been proposed, that of

Stable marriages and search frictions [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Economic Theory, 2014
Stable matchings are the primary solution concept for two-sided matching markets with nontransferable utility. We investigate the strategic foundations of stability in a decentralized matching market.

A constraint programming approach to the stable marriage problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The Stable Marriage problem (SM) is an extensively-studied combinatorial problem with many practical applications. In this paper we present two encodings of an instance I of SM as an instance J of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem.

A Note on the Uniqueness of Stable Marriage Matching

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2013
In this note we present some sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of a stable matching in the Gale-Shapley marriage classical model of even size. We also state the result on the existence of exactly two stable matchings in the marriage problem of odd

Bribery and Control in Stable Marriage [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Artificial Intelligence Research, 2020
We initiate the study of external manipulations in Stable Marriage by considering  several manipulative actions as well as several manipulation goals. For instance, one goal  is to make sure that a given pair of agents is matched in a stable solution, and this may be  achieved by the manipulative action of reordering some agents' preference lists.

Seen as stable marriages [PDF]

open access: yes2011 Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM, 2011
In this paper, we advocate the use of stable matching framework in solving networking problems, which are traditionally solved using utility-based optimization or game theory. Born in economics, stable matching efficiently resolves conflicts of interest among selfish agents in the market, with a simple and elegant procedure of deferred acceptance.

A stable marriage requires communication [PDF]

open access: yesGames and Economic Behavior, 2014
The Gale-Shapley algorithm for the Stable Marriage Problem is known to take $Θ(n^2)$ steps to find a stable marriage in the worst case, but only $Θ(n \log n)$ steps in the average case (with $n$ women and $n$ men). In 1976, Knuth asked whether the worst-case running time can be improved in a model of computation that does not require sequential access ...

Investigating the preference of women activists in family formation with emphasis on the concept of selectivity [PDF]

open access: yesReligion & Communication, 2022
The importance of the family has long been important - even in the unbridled societies of the West and the East - but the family today seems to have changed. So that in modern families, the role of families in marriage is very minimal. In the traditional
