We show how the properties of the cosmological billiards provide useful information (spacetime dimension and p ‐form spectrum) on the oxidation endpoint of the oxidation sequence of gravitational theories. We compare this approach to the other available methods: GL(n,R) subgroups and the superalgebras of dualities.
