The formation and evolution of low-mass (M2 M1 or = 1.5 solar mass) close binaries influenced by angular momentum loss by radiation of gravitational waves and magnetic stellar wind is reviewed. The frequency of formation of cataclysmic variables and low-mass X-ray sources is 0.005 and 0.00000003 per year, respectively. Results of evolutionary computations of secondaries are presented, which explain the existence of 2 to 3h orbital period gap, 80m minimal period, as well as the existence of unique ultrashort period systems with 15m or = P or = 1h.
