The Marriage Problem with Interdependent Preferences

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articleResearchpeer-review

This paper considers the Gale-Shapley model with interdependent preferences. Women's preferences over men are common knowledge but whether or not a man is acceptable depends on the preferences of men which are private information. It is shown that no ex-post incentive-compatible and ex-post stable matching rules exist. A characterization of ex-post incentive-compatible, ex-post individually rational and ex-post nonbossy matching rules in terms of modified priority rules is provided.
