At low energies, the structure-dependent part of the invariant amplitude for virtual Compton scattering (VCS) off pions (π e→ π eγ) can be expressed in terms of two generalized polarizabilities [1,2]. They are functions of the squared momentum transfer of the virtual photon and can be interpreted as generalizations of the well-known electromagnetic polarizabilities of real Compton scattering. We calculate the VCS amplitude in the framework of chiral perturbation theory at O(p⁴) in the momentum and quark mass expansion. The generalized polarizabilities are extracted from the general VCS amplitude.
