Idea

The bound states/brane intersections of D3-branes with D7-branes. The special case p=3p=3 of Dp-D(p+4)-brane bound states.

brane intersections/bound states/wrapped branes/polarized branes

D-branes and anti D-branes form bound states by tachyon condensation, thought to imply the classification of D-brane charge by K-theory
intersecting D-branes/fuzzy funnels:
- Dp-D(p+2)-brane bound state and Yang-Mills monopoles
- Dp-D(p+4)-brane bound state and Yang-Mills instantons
Dp-D(p+6) brane bound state
NS5-D4-D2 bound states
Hanany-Witten effect
