Comments

The old name was "Powerful numbers, definition (3)". Cf. A001694, A007532. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jan 16 2022.

Randle has suggested that these numbers be called "powerful", but this usually refers to a distinct property related to prime factorization, cf. A001694, A036966, A005934.

Numbers m such that m = Sum_{i=1..k} d(i)^s for some s, where d(1..k) are the decimal digits of m.

Superset of A005188 (Plusperfect, narcissistic or Armstrong numbers: s=k), A046197 (s=3), A052455 (s=4), A052464 (s=5), A124068 (s=6, 7), A124069 (s=8). - R. J. Mathar, Jun 15 2009, Jun 22 2009
