We propose sum rules for permutations $p_n(k)$ of the ensemble $\left\{1,2,\cdots,n\right\}$ with $k$ fixed points, in the form of partial sums of their moments. The corresponding identities involve Stirling numbers of the first kind…

We give explicit numerical values with 100 decimal digits for the Mertens constant involved in the asymptotic formula for $\sum\limits_{\substack{p\leq x p\equiv a \bmod{q}}}1/p$ and, as a by-product, for the Meissel-Mertens constant…
