Sangram Kadam and co-author Maciej H. Kotowski examine a dynamic, two‐sided, one‐to‐one matching market where agents on both sides interact over a period of time. The authors define and identify sufficient conditions for the existence of a dynamically stable matching, which may require revisions to initial assignments.
