Ghost oscillator vacuum ($b_{n\ge 0}|0⟩=c_{n>0}|0⟩=0$)

For the anticommuting bc system, $\{b_m,c_n\}={\delta }_{m+n,0}$. A useful oscillator vacuum obeys $b_n|0⟩=c_n|0⟩=0$ for $n>0$ and $b_0|0⟩=0$. Its partner $c_0|0⟩$ is nonzero. This specifies a ghost zero-mode doublet and differs from imposing annihilation by both zero modes.
