A class defined within an interface is no different than a top-level nested class. The only difference is that it is defined within an Interface, rather than a Class.

You can find a lot more information on these topics in the JLS, §9.5 Member Type Declarations and §8.1.2 Inner Classes and Enclosing Instances.

In addition, even though it's really about inner classes and not top-level nested classes, you can read this series in my blog:

Inner Classes
Inner Classes: Anonymous Classes
Inner Classes: Local Classes

The information is related.
