Introduction to Vertex Operator Algebras

Replace the chiral correlation-functions outline with a chapter on vertex operator superalgebras and update the roadmap. Define parity, super-locality, and signed normal ordering using explicit even/odd notation and parity-homogeneous hypotheses. List VSA and VOSA properties as exercises. Construct the free Majorana fermion from Clifford modes, prove its conformal structure at central charge one-half and simplicity, and cite the identification of its even part with the Ising VOA. Preserve all other accepted chapters.
