3. Gale-Shapley Algorithm Intially all men and women are free While there exists a free woman who can propose Let w be such a woman and m be the best man she has not proposed to w proposes to m If m is free (m,w) get engaged Else (m,w’) are engaged If m prefers w’ to w w remains free Else (m,w) get engaged and w’ is free Output the engaged pairs as the final output At most n 2 iterations O(1) time implementation

Gale-Shapley Algorithm Intially all men and women are free While there exists a free woman who can propose Let w be such a woman and m be the best man she has not proposed to w proposes to m If m is free (m,w) get engaged Else (m,w’) are engaged If m prefers w’ to w w remains free Else (m,w) get engaged and w’ is free Output the engaged pairs as the final output Linked list of free women Array Next[w] Array Current[m] Up Next ManPref[m,j] WomanPref[w,j] ManPref[m,j] WomanPref[w,j]

5. Does m prefer w’ to w? Option 1: m searches through ManPref[m] O(n) time! Define array Ranking[m,w] Initialization? O(n 2 ) time Update?
