Suppose p and q = p+22 are primes. Define the difference pattern of (p,q) to be the successive differences of the primes in the range p to q. There are 51 possible difference patterns, shown in the Comments line. Sequence gives smallest value of p for each difference pattern, sorted by magnitude.

%N Suppose p and q = p+22 are primes. Define the difference pattern of (p,q) to be the successive differences of the primes in the range p to q. There are 51 possible difference patterns, shown in the Comments line. Sequence gives smallest value of p for each difference pattern, sorted by magnitude.

%C The 51 difference patterns are [22], [4,18], [6,16], [10,12], [12,10], [16,6], [18,4], [4,2,16], [4,6,12], [4,8,10], [4,12,6], [4,14,4], [6,4,12], [6,6,10], [6,10,6], [6,12,4], [10,2,10], [10,6,6], [10,8,4], [12,4,6], [12,6,4], [16,2,4], [4,2,4,12], [4,2,6,10], [4,2,10,6], [4,6,2,10], [4,6,6,6], [4,6,8,4], [4,8,4,6], [4,8,6,4], [6,4,2,10], [6,4,6,6], [6,4,8,4], [6,6,4,6], [6,6,6,4], [6,10,2,4], [10,2,4,6], [10,2,6,4], [10,6,2,4], [12,4,2,4], [4,2,4,2,10], [4,2,4,6,6], [4,2,6,4,6], [4,6,2,4,6], [4,6,2,6,4], [6,4,2,4,6], [6,4,2,6,4], [6,4,6,2,4], [6,6,4,2,4], [10,2,4,2,4], [4,2,4,2,4,6].

%C Certain patterns are singular, i.e. occur only once like [4,2,4,2,4,6].

%e p=6547, q=6569 has difference pattern [4,2,10,6] and {6547,6551,6553,6563,6569} is the corresponding consecutive prime 5-tuple.
