Locally wrapped D-branes
  We find examples in string theory of locally wrapped D-branes. These excitations mimic skyrmions in that they correspond to topological excitations of the scalar fields parametrizing the brane motion in the space transverse to its world-volume. While these brane excitations appear to be point-like, evidence is provided that curvature corrections to the probe action might allow for a delocalization of the wrapping on a scale of the order of the string length, therefore rendering the phenomena non-singular.
