Except for the first term, 5, all terms == 11 (mod 30) - Zak Seidov, Dec 04 2008
Some further values: For k=1,...,10, a(k*10^3)=11721791, 31210841, 54112601, 78984791, 106583831, 136466501, 165939791, 196512551, 230794301, 265201421. [From M. F. Hasler, May 04 2009]
n is the first prime of 2 consecutive twin prime pairs. - Daniel Forgues, Aug 01 2009
The prime quadruples of form p + (0, 2, 6, 8) have the quadruple congruence class (-1, +1, -1, +1) (mod 6). - Daniel Forgues, Aug 12 2009
s = (p+8)-(p) = 8 is the smallest s giving an admissible prime quadruple form, for which the only admissible form is p + (0, 2, 6, 8), since (0, 2, 6, 8) is the only form not covering all the congruence classes for any prime <= 4. Since s is smallest, these prime quadruples are prime constellations (or prime quadruplets), i.e. they contain consecutive primes. - Daniel Forgues, Aug 12 2009
Except for the first term, 5, all prime quadruples are of the form (15k-4, 15k-2, 15k+2, 15k+4), with k >= 1, and so are centered on 15k. - Daniel Forgues, Aug 12 2009
Solutions of the equation n'+(n+2)'+(n+6)'+(n+8)'=4, where n' is the arithmetic derivative of n'. [Paolo P. Lava, Nov 09 2012]
Subsequence of A022004. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 10 2013
The quadruplets are listed in A136162. - M. F. Hasler, Apr 20 2013

a(n) = 11 + 30 A014561(n-1) for n>1. [From M. F. Hasler, May 04 2009]

EXAMPLE
|
Contribution from M. F. Hasler, May 04 2009: (Start)
a(1)=5 is the start of the first prime quadruplet, {5,7,11,13}.
a(2)=11 is the start of the second prime quadruplet, {11,13,17,19}, and all other prime quadruplets differ from this one by a multiple of 30.
a(100)=470081 is the start of the 100th prime quadruplet;
a(500)=4370081 is the start of the 500th prime quadruplet.
1002341=a(167) is the least quadruplet prime beyond 10^6. (End)
