Comments

In this sequence "smallest" means that the last term of the arithmetic progression is minimized and if there is still a choice then we minimize the common difference of the arithmetic progression.

Most rows so far consist of primes with 2 divisors, rows 7, 8, 9 and 11 have squarefree semiprimes with 4 divisors.
Row 10 is A033168; also row 10 of A086786, A133276 and A133277. (End)
