Abstract
The conjectured symmetries of M-theory famously involve (1.) brane-extended super-symmetry (the M-algebra) and (2.) exceptional duality-symmetry (the -algebra); but little attention has been given to their inevitable combination. In this little note, we highlight (by combining results available in the literature) that the exceptional duality-symmetry (the hyperbolic involutory ) acts on the M-algebra, through the "brane-rotating symmetry" , in a way which extends the known hierarchy of finite-dimensional -exceptional tangent spaces compatibly beyond the traditional bound of all the way to .
