COMMENTS
Subsets are A047948, A052188, A052189, A052190, A052195, A052197, A052198, etc. - R. J. Mathar, Apr 11 2008
Could be generated by searching for cases A001223(i) = A001223(i+1), writing down A000040(i). - R. J. Mathar, Dec 20 2008
a(n) = A006562(n) - A117217(n). - Zak Seidov, Feb 12 2013
These are primes for which the subsequent prime gaps are equal, so (p(k+2)-p(k+1))/(p(k+1)-p(k)) = 1. It is conjectured that prime gaps ratios equal to one are less frequent than those equal to 1/2, 2, 3/2, 2/3, 1/3 and 3. - Andres Cicuttin, Nov 07 2016

FORMULA
{A000040(i): A000040(i+1)= (A000040(i)+A000040(i+2))/2 }. - R. J. Mathar, Dec 20 2008
a(n) = A000040(A064113(n)). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 20 2012
EXAMPLE
The prime 7 is not in the list, because in the triple (7, 11, 13) of successive primes, 11 is not equal (7 + 13)/2 = 10.
The second term, 47, is the first prime in the triple (47, 53, 59) of primes, where 53 is the mean of 47 and 59.
MATHEMATICA
Clear[d2, d1, k]; d2[n_] = Prime[n + 2] - 2*Prime[n + 1] + Prime[n]; d1[n_] = Prime[n + 1] - Prime[n]; k[n_] = -d2[n]/(1 + d1[n])^(3/2); Flatten[Table[If[k[n] == 0, Prime[n], {}], {n, 1, 1000}]] (* Roger L. Bagula, Nov 13 2008 *)
