Abstract: Robustness of zero-modes of two-dimensional Dirac fermions is examined numerically for the honeycomb lattice in the presence of Kekul'e bond ordering. The split $n=0$ Landau levels in a magnetic field as well as the zero-modes generated by topological defects in the Kekul'e ordering are shown to exhibit anomalous robustness against disorder when the chiral symmetry is respected.
