We prove that the problem STO of deciding whether or not a finite set E of term equations is subject to occur-check is in NP. E is subject to occur-check if the execution of the Martelli-Montanari unification algorithm gives for input E a set E ∪ {x = t}, where t = x and x appears in t. Apt et al. (

N. Linial et al. raised the question of how difficult the computation of the Vapnik C 8 ervonenkis dimension of a concept class over a finite universe is. C. Papadimitriou and M. Yannakakis obtained a first answer using matrix representations of concept classes. However, this approach does not captu
