Nicola:
The one that I've heard of is the Edward Groth algorithm, published in
1986.
E.J. Groth. A Pattern-Matching Algorithm for Two-Dimensional
Coordinate Lists. Astronomical
Journal, 91:1244=961248, May 1986.
Here's another similar one:

And 2 more:
http://lear.inrialpes.fr/pubs/2004/MR04/MarszalekRokita-ICCVG04-Differentia=
lVoting.pdf
F. Valdes et al. FOCAS Automatic Catalog Matching Algorithms.
Publications of the
Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 107:1119, November 1995.
I'm sure there have been improvements and variants in the last 22
years. You might ask in the sci.astro newsgroup.
