We introduce the Dichotomy Property, a new property of some languages in Set Computable Theory, in order to explore the expressivity of some languages which are extensions of MLS. By-product we prove undecidability of MLS extended with not ordered cartesian product and disjoint unary union operators.

In this paper we define a new product-like binary operation on directed graphs, and we discuss some of its properties. We also briefly discuss its application in constructing the subtyping relation in generic nominally-typed object-oriented programming languages.
