Dec 5, 2013 at 17:21 | comment | added | Dave Futer | If the codimension is 1, there are really easy counterexamples (take a curve in $R^2$ which is $C^2$ but not smooth). If the codimension is 2, I'm not sure. In any case, codimension 3 is what naturally came up in a problem that a colleague of mine is studying. | |
Dec 5, 2013 at 16:17 | comment | added | Willie Wong | Out of curiosity: Is there any particular reason why codimension at least 3? Are there known results for the case of lower codimension? | |

Dec 5, 2013 at 8:45 | comment | added | Willie Wong | For immersed submanifolds: obviously not. For embedded submanifolds: use the constant rank theorem. Though maybe I am misunderstanding your question: is smooth $C^\infty$ here and are you asking about regularity issues? (If so, please edit to clarify, and in which case I retract my vote to close.) | |
