Index estimate by first Betti number of minimal hypersurfaces in compact symmetric spaces

Index estimate by first Betti number of minimal hypersurfaces in compact symmetric spaces

We show that the Morse index of unstable closed minimal hypersurface $\Sigma$ in a compact semi-simple Riemannian symmetric space $M=G/K$ is bounded from below by constant times the first Betti number of $\Sigma$.
