This project studies matching markets as a microstructure system built around bid–ask spreads, liquidity droughts, and execution constraints. It formalizes matching decisions as limit-order-book executions, demonstrating that linear compensation cannot close structural preference gaps unless it induces identity collapse. A dynamic execution threshold explains settling, high-tier instant matches, and post-match regret (slippage).
This Space mirrors the GitHub repository and provides a lightweight static homepage for the associated arXiv paper. All experiments, plots, and simulation code are available on GitHub.
