Abstract

It is very important to find some nontrivial relations for color-ordered amplitudes at loop levels. In the last several years, a pure group-theoretic method has been proposed to study loop level relations for color-ordered amplitudes in \sun\sun gauge theories. In this paper, we apply the same method to study the linear relations for loop level four point color-ordered gluon amplitudes in gauge theory with \son\son group and find that there are 1,6,10,13,161,6,10,13,16 constraint relations at L=0,1,2,3,4L=0,1,2,3,4 loop level. It is expected that there are more group-theoretic constraints for high loop levels. The constraint relations should be derived order by order in \son\son gauge theories. This is unlike the \sun\sun case, where there are only four constraints for higher (L2)(L\geqslant 2) loop amplitudes.
