We consider the problem of finding a stable matching of maximum size when both ties and unacceptable partners are allowed in preference lists. This problem is NP-hard and the current best known approximation algorithm achieves the approximation ratio 2 -clogN/N, where c is an arbitrary positive constant and N is the number of men in an input. In this paper, we improve the ratio to 2 - c1/√N, where c is a constant such that c ≤ 1/4√6. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
