Beauty is a Beast, Frog is a Prince: Assortative Matching with Nontransferabilities

TL;DR: In this paper, sufficient conditions for monotone matching in environments where utility is not fully transferable between partners are presented, which involve not only complementarity in types of the total payoff to a match, as in the transferable utility case, but also monotonicity in type of the degree of transferability between partners.
