A generalization of the operator product expansion for Euclidean correlators of gauge invariant QCD currents is presented. Each contribution to the modified expansion, which is based on a delocalized multipole expansion of a perturbatively determined coefficient function, sums up an infinite series of local operators. On a more formal level the delocalized operator expansion corresponds to an optimal choice of basis sets in the dual spaces which are associated with the interplay of perturbative and nonperturbative N-point correlations in a distorted vacuum. A consequence of the delocalized expansion is the running of condensates with the external momentum. Phenomenological evidence is gathered that the gluon condensate, often being the leading nonperturbative parameter in the OPE, is indeed a function of resolution. Within a model calculation of the nonperturbative corrections to the ground state energy of a heavy quarkonium system it is shown exemplarily that the convergence properties are better than those of the OPE. Potential applications of the delocalized operator expansion in view of estimates of the violation of local quark-hadron duality are discussed.
