Abstract
We use a series of reductions, T-dualities and liftings to construct connec tions between fractional brane solutions in IIA, IIB and M-theory. We find a number of phantom branes that are not supported by the geometry, however materialize upon untwisting and/or Hopf-reduction. (C) 2001 Published by El sevier Science B.V.
