description | Higher-order topological superconductors and superfluids have triggered a great deal of interest in recent years. While Majorana zero-energy corner or hinge states have been studied intensively, whether superconductors and superfluids host higher-order topological Bogoliubov excitations with finite energies remain elusive. In this work, we propose that Bogoliubov corner excitations with finite energies can be induced through only mirror-symmetric local potentials from a trivial conventional s -wave superfluid. The topological Bogoliubov excited modes originate from the nontrivial Bogoliubov excitation bands. These modes are protected by the mirror symmetry and are robust against mirror-symmetric perturbations as long as the Bogoliubov energy gap remains open. Our work provides a new insight into higher-order topological excitation states in superfluids and superconductors. |
