By definition, the nerve functor induces a morphism of localizers ${N_n : (n\Cat,\W_n^{\Th})\to(\Psh{\Delta},\W_{\Delta})}$ and hence a morphism of op-prederivators
is an equivalence of $\oo$-categories, then so is $u$.

\begin{proof}
Before anything else, let us note the following trivial but important fact: for any $\oo$\nbd{}functor $F : X \to Y$ and any $n$-cells $x$ and $y$ of $X$, if $x \sim_{\oo} y$, then $F(x)\sim_{\oo} F(y)$.

The present chapter sticks out from the others as it contains no original results. Its goal is simply to introduce the language and tools of homotopical algebra that we shall need in the rest of the dissertation. In consequence, most of the results are simply asserted and the reader will find references to literature for the proofs. The main notion of homotopical algebra we are aiming for is the one of \emph{homotopy colimits} and the language we chose to express this notion is the one given by the theory of Grothendieck's \emph{derivators}\cite{grothendieckderivators}. We do not assume that the reader is familiar with this theory and will quickly recall the basics. If needed, gentle introductions can be found in \cite{maltsiniotis2001introduction} and in a letter from Grothendieck to Thomason \cite{grothendieck1991letter}; more detailed introductions can be found in \cite{groth2013derivators} and in the first section of \cite{cisinski2003images}; finally, a rather complete (yet unfinished and unpublished) textbook on the subject is \cite{groth2013book}.
