Abstract
We study the topologically protected Majorana zero modes induced by lattice dislocations in chiral topological superconductors. Dislocations provide a new way to realize Majorana zero modes at zero magnetic field. In particular, we study several different types of dislocations in the candidate material ${\rm Sr_2RuO_4}.$ We also discuss the properties of linked dislocation lines and linked dislocation and flux lines. Various experimental consequences are predicted which provide a new approach to determine whether nature of the superconducting phase of ${\rm Sr_2RuO_4}.$
