Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selfsustained oscillations are some of the most commonly observed phenomena in biological systems. They emanate from non-linear systems in a heterogeneous environment and can be described by the theory of dynamical systems. Part of this theory considers reduced models of the oscillator dynamics by means of amplitudes and a phase variable. Such variables are highly attractive for theoretical and experimental studies. Theoretically these variables correspond to an integrable linearization of the generally non-linear system. Experimentally, there exist well established approaches to extract phases from oscillator signals. Notably, one can define phase models also for networks of oscillators. One highly active field examines effects of non-local coupling among oscillators, which is thought to play a key role in networks with strong coupling. The dissertation introduces and expands the knowledge about high-order phase coupling in networks of oscillators. Mathematical calculations consider the Stuart-Landau oscillator. [...].
