%N Numbers of the form p+q-r = q+r-s where p < q < r < s are consecutive primes.

%C The consecutive primes (p,q,r,s) satisfy 2*(r-p) = s-p. Define (p,q,r,s) = (p,p+dq,p+dr,p+ds), then 2*dr = ds. For n > 1, (r-p) == 0 (mod 6). - _A.H.M. Smeets_, Aug 17 2019

%C Correspond to where prime(i) - (prime(i+2)-prime(i+1)) values repeat. For example, 13 is obtained via both 19 - (29-23) and 17 - (23-19). - _Bill McEachen_, Jan 03 2021

%e Consider 4 consecutive primes (3,5,7,11), 3+5-7 = 1 = 5+7-11. 1 is a member of the sequence.

%e Consider 4 consecutive primes (59,61,67,71), 59+61-67 = 53 but, 61+67-71 = 57. These two sums are not equal so neither number is part of the sequence.
