COMMENTS

Conjectures: (1) Sequence is infinite. (2) For every n there are infinitely many arithmetic progressions with n successive primes.

Both conjectures follow from Dickson's conjecture. [Charles R Greathouse IV, Mar 14, 2011]

EXAMPLE

a(11)=1893245380950 because all eleven numbers 1*1893245380950+1, 2*1893245380950+1,3*1893245380950+1,...,10*1893245380950+1 & 11*1893245380950+1 are prime and 1893245380950 is the smallest number with such property.
