Quick Summary

A PhD supervisor is questioning whether they have any claim to a patent awarded to a former student for their thesis work. The student completed their PhD in 2020 and was awarded the patent without the supervisor's name. The supervisor believes the thesis was an extension of their own work and is asking about university rules regarding the inclusion of a supervisor's name on degrees and the patentability of student research.

is it a rule of the university that guide name must be published on PhD degree.

It is her own work hence she is the one who can claim patent rights.
The guide cannot dictate terms or insist on putting his name in her work without any rights.
Don't create problems for yourself by such thoughts.
