We study two-dimensional bosonic symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases which are protected by reflection symmetry and local symmetry [, , U(1), or U(1)], in the search for two-dimensional bosonic analogs of topological crystalline insulators in integer- spin systems with reflection and spin-rotation symmetries. To classify them, we employ a Chern-Simons approach and examine the stability of edge states against perturbations that preserve the assumed symmetries. We find that SPT phases protected by symmetry are classified as for even and 0 (no SPT phase) for odd while those protected by U(1) symmetry are . We point out that the two-dimensional Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki state of spins on the square lattice is a SPT phase protected by reflection and -rotation symmetries.
