Abstract: | The authors study strategic issues in the Gale-Shapley stable marriage model. In the first part of the paper, the authors derive the optimal cheating strategy and show that it is not always possible for a woman to recover her women-optimal stable partner from the men-optimal stable matching mechanism when she can only cheat by permuting her preferences. In fact, the authors show, using simulation, that the chances that a woman can benefit from cheating are slim. In the second part of the paper, the authors consider a two-sided matching market found in Singapore. The authors study the matching mechanism used by the Ministry of Education (ÌÎÅ) in the placement of primary six students in secondary schools. |
