| contents | Local supersymmetries have been a guiding principle to construct smooth horizonless supergravity solutions. By computing brane densities from the brane low-energy effective action, we classify the BPS solutions that have the maximal local supersymmetry structure, with sixteen supersymmetries. We find that whenever the gauge group is broken to its maximal abelian subgroup, the brane construction becomes purely geometric and one can identify the preserved local supercharges. This class of solution includes two- and three-charge monopoles, and polarised branes. On the contrary, we show that instantons involve pure non-abelian degrees of freedom that cannot have a geometric interpretation. Hence, we conjecture that such instantons cannot be fully captured by supergravity. |
