Abstract
Using an extension of the abundancy index to imaginary quadratic rings with unique factorization, we define what we call -powerfully perfect numbers in these rings. This definition serves to extend the concept of perfect numbers that have been defined and studied in the integers. We investigate the properties of -powerfully perfect numbers in the rings , , and , the three imaginary quadratic rings with unique factorization in which is not a prime.
