Abstract

In this article, we prove that any complete finite index hypersurface in the hyperbolic space H4(−1)(H5(−1)) with constant mean curvature H satisfying H2 > 64/63(H2 > 175/148 respectively) must be compact. Specially, we verify that any complete and stable hypersurface in the hyperbolic space H4(−1) (resp. H5(−1)) with constant mean curvature H satisfying H2 > 64/63 (resp. H2 > 175/148 ) must be compact. It shows that there is no manifold satisfying the conditions of some theorems in [7, 9].
