A note on the core of 2-matching games

Cooperative 2-matching games are a generalization of cooperative matching games, where the value function is given by maximum-weight b -matchings, for a vertex capacity vector b ≤ 2 . We show how to separate over the core of 2-matching games in polynomial time, fixing a small flaw in the literature, and prove the existence of a compact extended formulation for it.

Abstract

Cooperative 2-matching games are a generalization of cooperative matching games, where the value function is given by maximum-weight b -matchings, for a vertex capacity vector b ≤ 2 . We show how to separate over the core of 2-matching games in polynomial time, fixing a small flaw in the literature, and prove the existence of a compact extended formulation for it.
