From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   occurs check
  
      A feature of some implementations of
      {unification} which causes unification of a {logic variable} V
      and a structure S to fail if S contains V.
  
      Binding a variable to a structure containing that variable
      results in a cyclic structure which may subsequently cause
      unification to loop forever.   Some implementations use extra
      pointer comparisons to avoid this.
  
      Most implementations of {Prolog} do not perform the occurs
      check for reasons of efficiency.   Without occurs check the
      {complexity} of {unification} is
  
      O(min(size(term1), size(term2)))
  
      with occurs check it's
  
      O(max(size(term1), size(term2)))
  
      In {theorem proving} unification without the occurs check can
      lead to unsound inference.   For example, in {Prolog} it is
      quite valid to write
  
      X = f(X).
  
      which will succeed, binding X to a cyclic structure.   Clearly
      however, if f is taken to stand for a function rather than a
      {constructor}, then the above equality is only valid if f is
      the {identity function}.
  
      Weijland calls unification without occur check, "complete
      unification".   The reference below describes a complete
      unification algorithm in terms of Colmerauer's consistency
      algorithm.
  
      ["Semantics for Logic Programs without Occur Check",
      W.P. Weijland, Theoretical Computer Science 71 (1990) pp
      155-174].
