    On Spanning Simplicial Complexes Associated to Ladder Graph
    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2021) MUHAMMAD AZIZ; CIIT/FA19-RMT-011/LHR; Dr. Hani Shaker; LHR TP 7427
    In this thesis, we are going to discuss the algebraic and combinatorial aspects of span- ning simplicial complex ∆s(G) associated with the simple connected graph G, namely Ladder graph Ln. We mainly emphasis the characterization of s(Ln), all spanning tree, of Ln. We intend to provide the algebraic and combinatorial characterization of SSC ∆s(Ln) associated with the ladder graph Ln. In particular, we compute the formula for the f -vector of the SSC associated with the ladder graph Ln.

    The Fundamental Groups and Classification of Covering Spaces
    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2021) Muhammad Shoaib Khan; CIIT/FA19-RMT-050/LHR; Dr. Hani Shaker; LHR TP 7439
    Algebraic topology is a very rich subject and its beauty lies in the way chosen to study space. Based on the global properties of spaces, the constructions and developments in this subject give an abstract and general notion. Defining algebraic topology as the study of topological spaces by using the algebraic invariants is the very basic interpretation of algebraic topology. However, the fundamental group is one of these topological invariants used to study topological spaces. The algebraic variants such as fundamental group are used for the classification of topological spaces up to the homeomorphism. However, most of the invariants classify topological spaces up to homotopy equivalence. The general idea of algebraic topology and fundamental group has been given in the 1st chapter. In this thesis work, to explain fundamental group, homeomorphism, and homotopy, the 2nd chapter includes the gathered ideas and concepts of homotopy of loops and maps, fundamental group, and induced homeomorphism. This chapter forms a basis for covering spaces which has a direct link with the fundamental group. After setting the basis for covering spaces, the 3rd chapter explains all the aspects related to covering spaces such as the lifting of maps to the covering space, and the applications of the fundamental group are explained through the major algebraic topology theorems; “Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem” and “Borsuk Ulam Theorem”. A main result named as “Van-Kampan Theorem” has also been proved which helps a lot to calculate the fundamental groups of different spaces. In chapter 4 all the possible covering spaces of the given topological space have been discussed leading to the classification of covering spaces. Moreover, this section discusses the classification of covering spaces by starting from “The Covering Transformation”, “Galois Covering Space”, “Universal Cover” and “Galois Correspondence”.

    Topological Indices of Boron Nano Tubes and Some Chemical Graphs
    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2021) HAFIZ MUHAMMAD ASIF MEHMOOD; CIIT/FA19-RMT-114/LHR; Dr. Hani Shaker; LHR TP 7438
    The goal of this research study is to discuss some degree based topological descriptors of molecular graphs of (Boron Nano Tubes) by the assistance of fundamental ideas of graph theory. Using different terminologies we will calculate degree-based topological indices like “Gourava Indices”, “Shigehalli and Kanabur Indices”, “Sanskruti Index” of Boron Nano Tubes and also find some multiplicative version of above discussed topological indices of different molecular graphs.

    On Topological Study Of Face Cubic Lattice FCC(N)
    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2021) Anum Shahzadi; FA19-RMT-062; Dr. Hani Shaker; LHR TP 7385
    This study explores the topological properties of the Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) lattice, denoted as FCC(N), which is widely used to model crystalline structures in solid-state physics and materials science. The research focuses on analyzing the structural arrangement, connectivity, and symmetry of the FCC lattice using concepts from graph theory and topology. Key properties such as vertex coordination, edge relationships, and lattice transformations are examined to understand how the topology influences physical characteristics like stability, density, and atomic interactions. The findings highlight the mathematical significance of FCC(N) and its applications in modeling complex three-dimensional networks.
