Reforming an Envy-Free Matching with Ties

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) An envy-free matching is a type of matching between agents and items such that each agent have a preference order for the items they accept. For any agent, if no item more preferred to the item assigned to the agent is assigned to another agent, the assignment is called an envy-free matching. An envy-free matching that cannot be improved further by repeatedly exchanging an item assigned to an agent for an item not currently assigned to the agent, while maintaining envy-free, is called a reformist envy-free matching. It is known that the reformist envy-free matching obtained from a given envy-free matching is uniquely determined if the agent's preference order does not include ties. In this paper, we prove that reformist envy-free matching is uniquely determined under a certain equivalence relation when ties are included in the agent's preference order. We also prove that those matchings are transitive to each other by transitions in which the agent exchanges equally preferred items, using attribution to the combinational reconfiguration problem of bipartite matching. Finally, we formulate the problem of finding the optimal envy-free matching between reformist envy-free matchings obtained from an envy-free matching when the items are given a cost. We prove that the problem can be solved in polynomial time.
