In this paper, by defining off-shell amplitudes as off-shell CHY integrals, and redefining the longitudinal operator, we demonstrate that the differential operators which link on-shell amplitudes for a variety of theories together link off-shell amplitudes in a similar manner. Based on the algebraic property of the differential operator, we also generalize three relations among color-ordered on-shell amplitudes, including the color-ordered reversed relation, the photon decoupling relation, the Kleiss–Kuijf relation, to off-shell ones. The off-shell CHY integrals are chosen to be in the double-cover framework, thus, as a by product, our result also provides a verification for the double-cover construction.
