A Frankel type theorem in Euclidean and hyperbolic spaces

Abstract

We prove that a connected mean convex region in Rn+1\mathbb{R}^{n+1} with at least two components cannot have strictly positive mean curvature. This answers a question of Gromov. We also obtain estimates for how quickly the mean curvature must decay at infinity, and generalize this result to hyperbolic space.
