Distribution of primes (11N05) Sieves (11N35)

Abstract: We prove a generalization of the author's work to show that any subset of the primes which is `well-distributed' in arithmetic progressions contains many primes which are close together. Moreover, our bounds hold with some uniformity in the parameters. As applications, we show there are infinitely many intervals of length $(logx{)}^{epsilon}$ containing $g{g}_{e}psilonloglogx$ primes, and show lower bounds of the correct order of magnitude for the number of strings of $m$ congruent primes with $p_{n+m}-p_{n}leepsilonlogx$.
