Abstract

Deferred acceptance algorithm Marriage markets Stability
We consider a version of Gale and Shapley’s (College admissions and the stability of marriage 69:9–15) marriage market featuring a continuum of women and men based on Greinecker and Kah (Pairwise stable matching in large economies 89:2929–2974). We define a deferred acceptance algorithm for this setting and show that it terminates after a finite number of iterations to yield a side-optimal stable matching.
