Spectral splitting theorem and ends of minimal hypersurfaces

Differential Geometry 2026-05-15 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we give a new proof of the splitting theorem on manifolds with nonnegative spectral Ricci curvature proved in [APX24, CMMR24, HW26]. Furthermore, by constructing weighted minimizing geodesics at infinity, we show that minimal hypersurfaces with finite index in manifolds with nonnegative biRic curvature must have finite ends, generalizing the result of Li-Wang [LW04] on manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature.
