Let \(N\) be a complete simply connected Riemannian manifold of dimension \(n\geq 6\) and sectional curvature \(K\leq -1\). Let \(M\) be a complete non-compact submanifold of dimension \(m\geq 5\) immersed in \(N\). The author provides certain conditions for the \((m-1)\)-Ricci curvature of \(N\), the squared norm \(S\) of the second fundamental form and the norm of the mean curvature vector \(H\) of \(M\) which yield the following conclusion: There exist no non-trivial \(L^2\) harmonic 1-forms on \(M\) and \(M\) has only one end. If \(N\) is hyperbolic with \(K = -1\) and \(M\) is minimal, then these conditions reduce either to \(\sup _M S < m(m-4)/4\) or to \(\int _M S^{m/2} < C\) for a constant \(C\) which depends only on \(m\).
