%N Smallest initial prime p for at least n primes in increasing arithmetic progression with a common difference less than p.
%C Conjecture: a(n) > A034386(n) for every n >= 4.
%C From _Bernard Schott_, Mar 15 2023: (Start)
%C Corresponding common differences are in A361492.
%C a(22) = 11410337850553 since it is the smallest term in a sequence of 22 primes in arithmetic progression, and the corresponding common difference 4609098694200 is < a(22) (see Penguin reference). (End)
