As a finishing undergraduate you should know by now that your question is too wide:

What do you like ? What optional courses did you take? Do you like better analysis, topology, algebra, probability...? What teachers

and what do they deal with are there available as u.g. thesis advisors?

Common, a finishing u.g. student should know better...

There's a famous Topologist who in my opinion said it best and it's something I do all the time: I don't try and find something particular to work on. Rather I just "wade" in the mathematical waters and let the tide carry me wherever it leads. I find that very fitting to my way of doing things. So I suggest you consider that: just wade. Do something you find interesting with no particular goal in mind and allow it to carry you where it leads.

Why are you asking this to strangers on the internet and not to your professors??

Furthermore, you really need to give more information than in your OP.
