    In this paper, the authors study the mean curvature flow of a smooth closed submanifold in a complete simply connected hyperbolic space form. Assuming a pinching condition, they prove that the mean curvature flow converges to a round point in finite time. As an application, they provide a criterion for a closed submanifold to be diffeomorphic to a unit \(n\)-sphere.
