A polyhedral characterization of worker-quasi-stable matchings

RESUMO

We provide the first polyhedral characterization of worker-quasi-stable matchings in the classical one-to-one matching model. By modifying the classical stability constraints, we introduce a convex polytope and prove that it is integral. Consequently, its extreme points coincide exactly with the incidence vectors of worker-quasi-stable matchings, demonstrating that worker-quasi-stability preserves the geometric tractability of standard stability.
