Show affiliationsThe junction condition across a singular surface in general relativity, formulated by Israel, has double covariance. In this paper, a general perturbation scheme of the junction condition around an arbitrary background is given in a doubly covariant way. After that, as an application of the general scheme, we consider perturbation of the junction condition around a background with the symmetry of a (D-2)-dimensional constant-curvature space, where D is the dimensionality of the spacetime. The perturbed junction condition is written in terms of doubly gauge-invariant variables only. Since the symmetric background includes cosmological solutions in the brane-world as a special case, the doubly gauge-invariant junction condition can be used as basic equations for perturbations in the brane-world cosmology.
