Duality and the OPEDuality can be understood from an Operator Product Expansion of moments of structure functions
If F rises above scaling value it must fall at neighboring region to compensate in the moments
Duality is described in OPE as higher twist effects being small or canceling

Applications of duality
If duality works (higher twists are small)Properly averaged resonance data can be used to extract leading twist parton distributionsDuality provides extended access to large x regime
If duality is violated, and if violations are smallCan use duality violations to extract higher twist matrix elementsLearn about non-perturbative quark-quark or quark-gluon correlations

Chiral perturbation theoryWhen the quarks are masslessQCD lagrangian is Chiral symmetric Right or left handed quarks will retain their handedness
This exact chiral invariance is spontaneously broken by small quark mass terms allowing left and right handed quarks to mix induce light pseudo-Goldstone bosons
This allows one to make corrections to the chiral symmetry predictions in a perturbative manner
