    Thanks, David.

    I added a bit of material: string group, but still not enough.

    I further expanded the entry.

    • added the list of homotopy groups of O(n) and explained what is to explain there

    • added a remark n the origin of the term

    Notice that some of the information currently at String structure should be copied to string group

    I made some small edits to string group, removing a query box of mine that had been answered, replacing it by an appropriate sentence, and updated the reference to Nikolaus-Sachse-Wockel.
