Abstract

The paper focuses on investigating how certain relations between strict $n$-categories are preserved in a particular implementation of $(\infty,n)$-categories, given by saturated $n$-complicial sets. In this model, we show that the $(\infty,n)$-categorical nerve of $n$-categories is homotopically compatible with $1$-categorical suspension and wedge. As an application, we show that certain pushouts encoding composition in $n$-categories are homotopy pushouts of saturated $n$-complicial sets.
