A335278 First index of strictly decreasing prime quartets. 3
11, 18, 24, 47, 58, 62, 87, 91, 111, 114, 127, 132, 146, 150, 157, 180, 210, 223, 228, 232, 242, 259, 260, 263, 269, 274, 275, 282, 283, 284, 299, 300, 309, 321, 344, 350, 351, 363, 364, 367, 368, 369, 375, 378, 382, 388, 393, 399, 406, 409, 413, 431, 442, 446 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

COMMENTS
Let g(i) = prime(i + 1) - prime(i). These are numbers k such that g(k) > g(k + 1) > g(k + 2).

FORMULA
prime(a(n)) = A054804(n).
EXAMPLE
The first 10 strictly decreasing prime quartets:
31 37 41 43
61 67 71 73
89 97 101 103
211 223 227 229
271 277 281 283
293 307 311 313
449 457 461 463
467 479 487 491
607 613 617 619
619 631 641 643
For example, 211 is the 47th prime, and the primes (211,223,227,229) have differences (12,4,2), which are strictly decreasing, so 47 is in the sequence.
