An -digit number that is the sum of the th powers of its digits is called an -narcissistic number. It is also sometimes known as an Armstrong number, perfect digital invariant (Madachy 1979), or plus perfect number. Hardy (1993) wrote, "There are just four numbers, after unity, which are the sums of the cubes of their digits: , , , and . These are odd facts, very suitable for puzzle columns and likely to amuse amateurs, but there is nothing in them which appeals to the mathematician." Narcissistic numbers therefore generalize these "unappealing" numbers to other powers (Madachy 1979, p. 164).
The smallest example of a narcissistic number other than the trivial 1-digit numbers is

The first few are given by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 153, 370, 371, 407, 1634, 8208, 9474, 54748, ... (OEIS A005188).
It can easily be shown that base-10 -narcissistic numbers can exist only for , since

for . In fact, as summarized in the table below, a total of 88 narcissistic numbers exist in base 10, as proved by D. Winter in 1985 and verified by D. Hoey. T. A. Mendes Oliveira e Silva gave the full sequence in a posting (Article 42889) to sci.math on May 9, 1994. These numbers exist for only 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 16, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24, 25, 27, 29, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, and 39 (OEIS A114904) digits, and the series of smallest narcissistic numbers of digits are 0, (none), 153, 1634, 54748, 548834, ... (OEIS A014576).

The table below gives the first few base- narcissistic numbers for small bases . A table of the largest known narcissistic numbers in various bases is given by Pickover (1995) and a tabulation of narcissistic numbers in various bases is given by Corning.

A closely related set of numbers generalize the narcissistic number to -digit numbers which are the sums of any single power of their digits. For example, 4150 is a 4-digit number which is the sum of fifth powers of its digits. Since the number of digits is not equal to the power to which they are taken for such numbers, they are not narcissistic numbers. The smallest numbers which are sums of any single positive power of their digits are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 153, 370, 371, 407, 1634, 4150, 4151, 8208, 9474, ... (OEIS A023052), with powers 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 4, 4, ... (OEIS A046074).
Another set of related numbers are the Münchhausen numbers, which are numbers equal to the sum of their digits raised to each digit's power.
The smallest numbers which are equal to the th powers of their digits for , 4, ..., are 153, 1634, 4150, 548834, 1741725, ... (OEIS A003321). The -digit numbers equal to the sum of th powers of their digits (a finite sequence) are called Armstrong numbers or plus perfect number and are given by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 153, 370, 371, 407, 1634, 8208, 9474, 54748, ... (OEIS A005188).
If the sum-of-th-powers-of-digits operation applied iteratively to a number eventually returns to , the smallest number in the sequence is called a -recurring digital invariant.
The numbers that are equal to the sum of consecutive powers of their digits are given by 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 89, 135, 175, 518, 598, 1306, 1676, 2427, 2646798 (OEIS A032799), e.g.,

The values obtained by summing the th powers of the digits of a -digit number for , 2, ... are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, ... (OEIS A101337).
