The aim of the thesis is to determine the evolutionary stable structure of an economy where buyers and sellers have a choice between a symmetric random matching and an asymmetric efficient matching market that differ in pricing mechanisms. Additionally, a stability property of an asymmetric market, where buyers differ in their possibility of meeting a seller, is studied. Two efficient markets with d...
