Abstract

In this note, we leverage the author's pasting theorem for (,n)(\infty,n)-categories to construct new models of (,n)(\infty,n)-categories for all nn \leq \infty, as presheaves on certain categories of computads. Among these new models are some which facilitate a construction of the Gray tensor product of (,n)(\infty,n)-categories Day convolution and reflection, which we carry out here. After constructing this Gray tensor product of (,n)(\infty,n)-categories, we characterize it via several model-independent universal properties.
