Soft Homotopy Classes and Their Fundamental Group

In this paper, our prime aim is to develop the concept of fundamental group structure in soft set theoretic approach. To execute this, first, we have defined soft homotopy of maps, soft path, soft loop, soft path homotopy, soft loop homotopy, product of soft loops, soft homotopy class, etc., at a soft element using generalized soft mappings and their important behaviors are studied. Finally, we have introduced the notion of fundamental group whose members are soft homotopy classes. Some examples are also discussed in different soft topological spaces.
