abstract

We define a closed model category containing the $n$-nerves defined by Tamsamani, and admitting internal $Hom$. This allows us to construct the $n+1$-category $nCAT$ by taking the internal $Hom$ for fibrant objects. We prove a generalized Seifert-Van Kampen theorem for Tamsamani's Poincar\'e $n$-groupoid of a topological space. We give a still-speculative discussion of $n$-stacks, and similarly of comparison with other possible definitions of $n$-category.

    Homotopy posets assemble into an oriented long exact sequence analogue and form layers of a categorical Postnikov tower, with Postnikov-complete (∞,∞)-categories identified as the limit of (∞,n)-categories along truncation functors.
