Abstract

We study the complete O(αew){\cal O}(\alpha_{ew}) electroweak (EW) corrections to the production of three Z0Z^0-bosons in the the framework of the standard model(SM) at the ILC. The leading order and the EW next-to-leading order corrected cross sections are presented, and their dependence on the colliding energy s\sqrt{s} and Higgs-boson mass mHm_{H} is analyzed. We investigate also the LO and one-loop EW corrected distributions of the transverse momentum of final Z0Z^0 boson, and the invariant mass of Z0Z0Z^0Z^0-pair. Our numerical results show that the EW one-loop correction generally suppresses the tree-level cross section, and the relative correction with mH=120GeV(150GeV)m_{H}=120 GeV(150 GeV) varies between 15.8-15.8%(-13.9%) and 7.5-7.5%(-6.2%) when s\sqrt{s} goes up from 350GeV350 GeV to 1TeV1 TeV.
