(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A082512 a(n)=p is the smallest prime introducing a consecutive prime-difference pattern as follows: [2,2n,2], i.e. [p,p+2,p+2+2n,p+2+2n+2] are consecutive primes. Increasing middle prime gap in immediate the neighborhood of two small gaps[=2]; a(n)=0 if no such pattern exists. 0

COMMENTS

It is conjectured that twin primes in neighborhood can be separated by arbitrary large gap.

EXAMPLE

a(4)=0 because no p can begin a [2,8,2] gap-pattern since Mod[p,6]=5 must hold and following 3 primes give Mod[6] 1,3,5 residues so p+2+8 is not prime; a(n)=0 if 2n congruent to 0 or 2 mod 6; a(n) has solution for n=6k+4;

n=16: the 4 corresponding primes and 3 differences are {1931[2]1933[16]1949[2]1951}.

MATHEMATICA

d[x_] := Prime[x+1]-Prime[x]; h={k1=2, k2=82, k3=2}; de=Apply[Plus, h]; k=0; Do[If[Equal[d[n], k1]&&Equal[d[n+1], k2]&&Equal[d[n+2], k3], k=k+1; Print[k, n, h, {Prime[n], Prime[n+1], Prime[n+2], Prime[n+3]}]], {n, 1, 10000000}]
