Euler's theorem that the sum of reciprocals of the primes, Σ_p 1/p, diverges. Claims about the theorem's statement and proofs (Euler's, Erdős's), the refined asymptotic Σ_{p≤x} 1/p = log log x + M (Mertens), quantitative bounds and refinements, and generalizations or analogous statements for other sequences belong here; contrasting convergent sums (e.g. Brun's theorem for twin primes) belong under

The sum of the reciprocals of the prime numbers diverges.
