Maximum-expectation matching under recourse

Abstract: This paper addresses the problem of maximizing the expected size of a matching in the case of unreliable vertices and/or edges. The assumption is that the solution is built in several steps. In a given step, edges with successfully matched vertices are made permanent; but upon edge or vertex failures, the remaining vertices become eligible for reassignment. This process may be repeated a given number of times, and the objective is to end with the overall maximum number of matched vertices.
