Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space and let $O_n$ be the orthogonal group. Motivated by a question of B. Szegedy (B. Szegedy,Edge coloring models and reection positivity, Journal of the American Mathematical Society Volume 20, Number 4, 2007), about the rank of edge connection matrices of partition functions of vertex models, we give a combinatorial parameterization of tensors in $V^{\otimes}k$-invariant under certain subgroups of the orthogonal group. This allows us to give an answer to this question for vertex models with values in an algebraically closed fi eld of characteristic zero
