The result generalises to finite arithmetic progressions of m consecutive primes with span h , for which instead h <= exp(8m + 5) .
There must be some further restriction this . In particular, h must be a multiple of p, for any p <=m, or one of the numbers in the progression will be a multiple of p. Are there any additional restrictions?
For those with time to spare and robust self-esteem, there is (considerably) more detail available at

On this page, a comment asks if any of this generalizes to arithmetic progressions, but there is no reply. Andy
