Abstract
Given an integer , we study the numbers that satisfy the condition . This condition, which is reminiscent of the one satisfied by Giuga numbers (), also includes the so-called \cite{sondow} weak primary pseudoperfect numbers (). As a tribute to our late colleague Jonathan Sondow (1943 -- 2020), we have named these numbers -Sondow numbers. In this paper, we give several different characterizations of these numbers, all of them suggested by well-known characterizations of the Giuga numbers. We also relate these numbers to the well-known Erd\"os-Moser equation and we present some conjectures about them.
