Vertex Operator Algebras: Conformal Vectors and Virasoro Algebra

Description

This lecture covers the theory of vertex operator algebras, focusing on conformal vectors, Virasoro algebra, and Heisenberg vertex algebra. It discusses properties such as conformal invariance, the Virasoro algebra structure, and the Heisenberg commutation relations. The lecture also explores the significance of the Leech lattice and the moonshine phenomenon in the context of vertex operator algebras.
