We propose the n-clique network as a powerful tool for understanding global structures of combined highly-interconnected subgraphs, and provide theoretical predictions for statistical properties of the n-clique networks embedded in a complex network using the degree distribution and the clustering spectrum. Furthermore, using our theoretical predictions, we find that the statistical properties are invariant between 3-clique networks and original networks for several observable real-world networks with the scale-free connectivity and the hierarchical modularity. The result implies that structural properties are identical between the 3-clique networks and the original networks.
