Two natural bilinear symmetric forms appear there, and we use it to analyze the geometry of $Σ$. We show the way in which these forms control the smooth extensibility over $Σ$ of the covariant, sectional and Ricci curvatures of the Levi-Civita connection outside $Σ$.Differential Geometry53C50, 53B30, 53C15Transverse Riemann-Lorentz metrics with tangent radicaltext
