We define the median stable matching for two-sided matching markets with wages and prove constructively that it exists. Journal of Economic Literature Classification Numbers: C71, C78.

A combined experimental and theoretical study was conducted on numerous higher fullerene anions with different sizes and shapes, C76-D2, C78-C2v, C78-D3, C84-D2, and C84-D2d. The corresponding fullerenes were reduced by lithium metal to diamagnetic multiply charged anions. The centers of gravity of the 13C NMR spectra of all the multiply charged anions were deshielded, relative to those of the ...

We propose a bargaining process with alternating proposals as a way of solving non-cooperative games, giving rise to Pareto efficient agreements which will, in general, differ from the Nash equilibrium of the constituent games. JEL classification: C72; C73; C78.

Most doctors in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) match with one of their most preferred internship programs. However, surveys indicate doctors’ preferences are similar, suggesting a puzzle: how can so many top choices when positions scarce? We provide possible explanation. show that patterns NRMP data may be an artifact interview process precedes match. Our study highlights importa...

Site-directed mutagenesis was used to investigate the contribution of disulfide bonds to the antigenic structure of Der p 2. Single amino acid variants were generated at cysteine residues, preventing the formation of disulfide bonds at positions 21-27, 73-78, and 8-119. The variants were tested for binding to murine monoclonal antibodies (mAb) and human IgE antibodies (Ab) in an inhibition enzy...

We study bargaining over contingent contracts in problems where private information becomes public or verifiable when the time comes to implement agreement. suggest a simple, two-stage game that incorporates important aspects of bargaining. characterize equilibria which parties always reach agreement, and their limits as frictions vanish. Under mild regularity conditions, we show all interim-ef...
