Title: A roadmap of the microscopic theory for spontaneous fission

Abstract: In this talk, microscopic fission theory based on nuclear energy density functional approach will be discussed. Key ingredients for the calculation of spontaneous fission lifetime and yield distributions are the potential energy surface and the collective inertia. An improved theoretical framework is developed to estimate these input quantities precisely in multidimensional collective space. Further, the state-of-the-art action minimization technique is utilized to calculate the minimum action paths resulting the spontaneous fission observables. Recent progresses in this direction will be elaborated.
