A note on rational homology vanishing theorem for hypersurfaces in aspherical manifolds

In this note, we generalize Gromov's reduction \cite{Gro20} from the aspherical conjecture to the generalized filling radius conjecture to the smooth $\mathbb Q$-homology vanishing conjecture for hypersurface. In particular, we can show that any continuous map from a closed $4$-manifold admitting positive scalar curvature to an aspherical $5$-manifold induces zero map in $H_4(\cdot,\mathbb Q)$. As a corollary, we obtain the following splitting theorem: if a complete aspherical $5$-manifold has nonnegative scalar curvature and two ends, then it splits into the Riemannian product of a closed flat manifold and the real line.
