Problem Definition
Over the last 50 years, the stable marriage problem has been extensively studied for many problem settings (see, e.g., [11]), and one of the most intensively studied problem settings is MAX SMTI (MAXimum Stable Marriage with Ties and Incomplete lists). An input for the stable marriage problem consists of n men, n women, and each person’s preference list for the people of the opposite sex. In MAX SMTI, the preference list of each person can be incomplete, which means that each person is allowed to exclude unacceptable people from the preference list, and the preference list of each person is allowed to include ties to show indifference between two or more people.
