Generalized Hestenes' Lemma and extension of functions

Suppose we have an -jet field on which is a Whitney field on the nonsingular part of . We show that, under certain hypotheses about the relationship between geodesic and euclidean distance on , if the field is flat enough at the singular part , then it is a Whitney field on (the order of flatness required depends on the coefficients in the hypotheses). These hypotheses are satisfied when is subanalytic. In Section II, we show that a function on can be extended to one on if the differential goes to faster than the order of divergence of the principal curvatures of and if the first covariant derivative of is sufficiently flat. For the general case of functions with , we give a similar result for in Section III.
