Abstract
In this paper, we study the parallelism between perfect numbers and Leinster groups and continue it by introducing the new concepts of almost and quasi Leinster groups which parallel almost and quasi perfect numbers. These are small deviations from perfect numbers; very few results and/or examples are known about them. We investigate nilpotent almost-/quasi-/Leinster groups and find some examples and conditions for the existence of such groups for classes of non-nilpotent groups: ZM (Zassenhaus metacyclic) groups, dihedral generalised groups, generalised dyciclic groups and affine groups.
