Dear Dean and Seqfans

First of all, sorry for the multiple sendings, I had a problem with my e-mail.

Thank you for your answer. I will follow your advice and I like this definition
:
Primes p for which there are no primes between p and p+sqrt(p) :
3,7,13,23,31,113

About the Cramer's conjecture, it's the object of my comment on A117078 :
Primes p for which there are no primes between p and p+ln²(p) :
2,3,7
Primes p for which the decomposition in weight*level+gap
(A000040(n)=A117078(n)*A117563(n)+A001223(n)) is impossible :
2,3,7
I look for the relation between my decomposition and the Cramer's conjecture.

"You could add a comment that there are no other terms less than
218034721194214273.  (That's assuming that all of the terms in
http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/b002386.txt  are correct.)"

srqt(p) > ln² p for p=2, p=3 and p in (5507, infinity)
sqrt(p) < ln²p for p in (5, 5503)
So by considering the Cramer's conjecture as true we have :
Primes p for which there are no primes between p and p+sqrt(p) < 5507.
Attached two graphs illustrating this comment.
Have a nice day.
