Interview hoarding

THEORETICAL ECONOMICS, 18(2), 503–527.

By: V. Manjunath* & T. Morrill

author keywords: NRMP; deferred acceptance; interviews; hoarding; C78; D47; J44

Making just school assignments

GAMES AND ECONOMIC BEHAVIOR, 92, 18–27.

By: T. Morrill

author keywords: Top trading cycles; School choice; Assignment
TL;DR: It is proved that Top Trading Cycles is the unique mechanism that is strategyproof, efficient, and just and it is demonstrated that a strictly stronger notion of fairness than justness is either unachievable by a strategyproof and efficient mechanism or it is only achievable by TTC.
