I think the OP does not want to list duplicate records. Perhaps

> merge(unique(df1), df2, all.y=TRUE)
  v1 v2 ind
1  1 83   1
2  1 84   1
3  2 83  NA
4  2 84  NA
5  3 83  NA
6  3 84  NA
7  4 83  NA
8  4 84  NA

Hi

I do not understand what you want to achive with this.

> df2$v3 <- ifelse(df2$v1 %in% df1$v1 & df2$v2==df2$v1, 1, 0).

You compare v1 and v2 from data frame df2 to column v1 in data frame df1?

It is true only in case where df2$v1 equals df2$v2.

In case you mean that you want check equality of rows in both data frames you 
can use this

> df1$ind<-1
> merge(df1, df2, all.y=T)
   v1 v2 ind
1   1 83   1
2   1 83   1
3   1 84   1
4   1 84   1
5   2 83  NA
6   2 84  NA
7   3 83  NA
8   3 84  NA
9   4 83  NA
10  4 84  NA

Cheers
Petr
