    Description
    In this talk I will discuss brane solutions of gravity-dilaton-axion systems with charges that take values in the three different conjugacy classes of the SL(2,R) duality group. In particular, I will focus on 7-brane and instanton solutions. I will give explicit examples of such solutions and discuss some of their salient features, in particular their relation with the AdS/CFT and DW/QFT correspondences.
