Abstract
We calculate the standard model predictions for top quark pair production and decay into six fermions at a linear e+ e- collider. We include the factorizable electroweak O(alpha) corrections in the pole approximation and QED corrections due to the initial state radiation in the structure function approach. The effects of the radiative corrections on the predictions are illustrated by showing numerical results for two selected six-fermion reactions e+ e- -> b nu_mu mu+ bar{b} mu- bar{nu_mu} and e+ e- -> b nu_mu mu+ bar{b} d bar{u}.
