Abstract: Gauge choice for a spherically symmetric 3-brane embedded in a D-dimensional bulk with arbitrary matter fields on and off the brane is studied. It is shown that Israel's junction conditions across the brane restrict severely the dependence of the matter fields on the spacetime coordinates. As examples, a scalar field or a Yang-Mills potential can be only either time-dependent or radial-coordinate dependent for the chosen gauge, while for a perfect fluid it must be co-moving.
