Equilibrium allocations under alternative waitlist designs: Evidence from deceased donor kidneys
Waitlists are often used to ration scarce resources, but the trade‐offs in designing these
mechanisms depend on agents' preferences. We study equilibrium allocations under …

Kidney exchange: An operations perspective
Many patients in need of a kidney transplant have a willing but incompatible (or poorly
matched) living donor. Kidney exchange programs arrange exchanges among such patient …

A theoretical and computational equilibria analysis of a multi-player kidney exchange program
M Carvalho, A Lodi - European Journal of Operational Research, 2023 - Elsevier
A main aim of kidney exchange programs (KEPs) is to maximize the number of transplants
within a pool of incompatible patient-donor pairs by exchanging donors. A KEP involving …

Incentivized kidney exchange
Over the last 15 years, kidney exchange has become a mainstream paradigm to increase

Fairness models for multi-agent kidney exchange programmes
Nowadays there are several countries running independent kidney exchange programmes
(KEPs). These programmes allow a patient with kidney failure, having a willing healthy but …

On matching and thickness in heterogeneous dynamic markets
We study dynamic matching in an infinite-horizon stochastic market. Although all agents are
potentially compatible with each other, some are hard to match and others are easy to …
