Abstract

We analyse evolutionary tracks at young ages for low mass stars with masses m ≤ 1.4 M ⊙ and brown dwarfs down to one mass of Jupiter. We analyse current theoretical uncertainties due to initial conditions. Simple tests on initial conditions show the high uncertainties of models at ages ≲ 1 Myr.
