The time-dependent Schrödinger equation and the method of perturbed stationary states that is based on the expansion of the total wave function for the system of two nuclear cores and a nucleon in a set of nucleon two-center functions are used to describe nucleon transfers and fusion in low-energy nuclear reactions. A set of multichannel equations that couple the relative motion of nuclei to the motion of the nucleon is obtained. The kinetic-energy coupling matrix is similar to the coupling matrix for collective excitations of nuclei.
