The population of non magnetic cataclysmic variables evolving under the influence of a circumbinary disk is investigated for systems above the upper edge of the period gap at orbital periods greater than 2.75hr. For a fractional mass input rate into the disk, corresponding to 3e-4 of the mass transfer rate, the model systems exhibit a bounce at orbital periods greater than 2.75hr. The simulations reveal that (1) some systems can exist as dwarf nova type systems throughout their lifetime, (2) dwarf nova type systems can evolve into nova-like systems as their mass transfer rate increases with increasing circumbinary disk mass, and (3) nova-like systems can evolve back into dwarf nova systems during their postbounce evolution to longer orbital periods. Among these subclasses, nova-like cataclysmic variables would be the best candidates to search for circumbinary disks at wavelengths greater than 10 micron. The theoretical orbital period distribution of our population synthesis model is in reasonable accord with the combined population of dwarf novae and nova-like systems above the period gap, suggesting the possibility that systems with unevolved donors need not detach and evolve below the period gap as in the disrupted magnetic braking model. The resulting population furthermore reveals the possible presence of systems with small mass ratios (a property of systems exhibiting superhump phenomena at long orbital periods) and a preference of O/Ne/Mg white dwarfs in dwarf nova systems in comparison to nova-like systems. The importance of observational bias in accounting for the differing populations is examined, and it is shown that an understanding of these effects is necessary in order to confront the theoretical distributions with the observed ones in a meaningful manner.

The population synthesis of cataclysmic variables below the period is investigated. A grid of detailed binary evolutionary sequences has been calculated and included in the simulations to take account of additional angular momentum losses beyond that
Four newest CCD eclipse timings of the white dwarf for polar UZ Fornacis and Six updated CCD mid-eclipse times for SW Sex type nova-like V348 Puppis are obtained. The detailed O-C analyses for both CVs inside period gap are made. Orbital period incre
We present high-speed, three-colour photometry of the eclipsing cataclysmic variables CTCV 1300, CTCV 2354 and SDSS 1152. All three systems are below the observed period gap for cataclysmic variables. For each system we determine the system parameter
We report the discovery and analysis of PTF1 J085713+331843, a new eclipsing post common-envelope detached white-dwarf red-dwarf binary with a 2.5h orbital period discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory. ULTRACAM multicolour photometry over multi
Binary evolution theory predicts that accreting white dwarfs with sub-stellar companions dominate the Galactic population of cataclysmic variables (CVs). In order to test these predictions, it is necessary to identify these systems, which may be diff
