Recently, various techniques of solution generating transformations in SUGRA are developed.

Generalized Supergravity Equations of motion (GSE) Killing vector
If a target space is a solution of Generalized SUGRA, superstring theory has the kappa-invariance and the rigid scale-invariance. However, the Weyl invariance seems to be broken. Weyl invariance may not be broken! talk by String theory may be consistently defined!

In the usual spacetime, diffeomorphisms are generated by the Lie derivative: The diffeomorphism-invariant gravitational theory is the Einstein gravity:

Double Field Theory is the generalized diffeomorphism-invariant theory. Fundamental fields: DFT dilaton T-duality invariant.
Lagrangian of DFT (NS-NS sector): This combination is invariant under the generalized diffeomorphism.
In fact, the generalized diffeo.-invariance of the action requires a condition, called the section condition. This is also required for the closure of the generalized Lie derivative.

Another solution is Section condition always removes the dependence on a half of the doubled coordinates. In fact, depending on the choice of the coordinates we can reproduce the SUGRA or GSE.

Introduce double vielbein two vielbeins Local flat metric double Lorentz symmetry O(d) x O(d)
Local flat metric double Lorentz symmetry O(d) x O(d) Ramond-Ramond fields (bi-spinor): In this formulation, there are 2 vielbeins: In order to reproduce the usual SUGRA, we should make an identification:
Under a general O(d,d) rotation The two vielbeins transform differently: In order to keep the identification we should combine O(d,d) rotation and a Lorentz transf.
Under a general O(d,d) rotation only barred index is rotated by the Lorentz transf. The same idea has been applied in the context of the Non-Abelian T-duality. Field strength: (covariant under generalized diffeo.)
In type II SUGRA, we have gravitino: (IIA/IIB) dilatino: (IIA/IIB) Covariant combinations Type II DFT action.
Neglecting the R-R fields, GSE take the form: Constraint : non-dynamical vector I should be a Killing vector of a GSE solution.

Original Background (Type V Bianchi universe): We consider 3 Killing vectors, tracefull!
This background does not satisfy the SUGRA e.o.m.
They considered a general ansatz for dilaton, but no solution.
Solution of Generalized Supergravity!
More GSE solutions were obtained from Non-Abelian T-dualities of other Bianchi universes. General formula: The Killing vector is given by SUGRA Generalized SUGRA
Without the R-R fields, GSE have the form:
Due to the Killing property, we can always take an adapted coordinates where is constant. Killing equations become
Now, we can derive GSE by introducing a linear dual-coordinate dependence into the DFT dilaton: Section condition is not violated:
According to the ansatz, derivative of dilaton becomes canonical section
By substituting the ansatz into e.o.m. of DFT, we can reproduce the GSE!
We make an ansatz

We have also determined the T-duality rule in the presence of the Killing vector:

DFT action is invariant under a constant O(d,d) rotation Unlike the Abelian T-duality of string theory, this is a symmetry even without isometries. formal T-duality
Arbitrary solution of GSE, Perform a formal T-duality along the z-direction Buscher rule Solution of SUGRA A solution of GSE can be mapped to a solution of SUGRA
Conversely, for an arbitrary linear-dilaton solution a formal T-duality GSE solution GSE solution is just a SUGRA solution described in a non-canoical section.
