The density-constrained time-dependent Hartree-Fock (DC-TDHF) theory is a fully microscopic approach for calculating heavy-ion interaction potentials and fusion cross sections below and above the fusion barrier. We discuss applications of DC-TDHF method to fusion, the effects of neutron transfer, and potential application to fission barrier calculations.
