Abstract
Let M be a smooth manifold, $${I\subset M}$$ a closed embedded submanifold of M and U an open subset of M. In this paper, we find conditions using a geometric notion of scaling for $${t\in \mathcal{D}^{\prime}(U{\setminus} I)}$$ to admit an extension in $${\mathcal{D}^\prime(U)}$$ . We give microlocal conditions on t which allow to control the wave front set of the extension generalizing a previous result of Brunetti–Fredenhagen. Furthermore, we show that there is a subspace of extendible distributions for which the wave front of the extension is minimal which has applications for the renormalization of quantum field theory on curved spacetimes.
