ABSTRACT
Dynamic matching markets are an ubiquitous object of study with applications in health, labor, or dating. We study a model proposed by Akbarpour et al. [2020] and Anderson et al. [2017], where homogeneous agents arrive at random according to a Poisson process and possess a random compatibility with other agents as in the Erdős-Rényi model. Agents leave according to a certain departure distribution and may leave early by forming a pair with a compatible agent. If agents are not matched until the end of their sojourn time, they perish and have to leave the market unmatched.

On Matching and Thickness in Heterogeneous Dynamic Markets
We study dynamic matching in an infinite-horizon stochastic market. Although all agents are potentially compatible with each other, some are hard to match and others are easy to match. Agents prefer to be matched as soon as possible, and matches are ...
On Matching and Thickness in Heterogeneous Dynamic Markets
EC '16: Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference on Economics and ComputationWe study dynamic matching in an infinite-horizon stochastic networked market, in which some agents are a priori more difficult to match than others. Agents have compatibility-based preferences and can match either bilaterally, or indirectly through ...
On the Integration of Production and Financial Hedging Decisions in Global Markets
We study the integrated operational and financial hedging decisions faced by a global firm who sells to both home and foreign markets. Production occurs either at a single facility located in one of the markets or at two facilities, one in each market. ...
