abstract
Theories with General Relativity as a sub-sector exhibit enhanced symmetries upon dimensional reduction, which is suggestive of ``exotic dualities''. Upon inclusion of time-like directions in the reductions one can dualize to theories in different space-time signatures. We clarify the nature of these dualities and show that they are well captured by the properties of infinite-dimensional symmetry algebra's (G+++ algebra's), but only after taking into account that the realization of Poincare duality leads to restrictions on the denominator subalgebra appearing in the non-linear realization. The correct realization of Poincare duality can be encoded in a simple algebraic constraint, that is invariant under the Weyl-group of the G+++ algebra, and therefore independent of the detailed realization of the theory under consideration. We also construct other Weyl-invariant quantities that can be used to extract information from the G+++ algebra without fixing a level decomposition.

Symmetries of non-maximal supergravities with higher-derivative corrections
