Abstract: Abundancy index refers to the ratio of the sum of the divisors of a number to the number itself. It is a concept of great importance in defining friendly and perfect numbers. Here, we describe a suitable generalization of abundancy index to the ring of Gaussian integers ($mathbbZ[i]$). We first show that this generalization possesses many of the useful properties of the traditional abundancy index in $mathbbZ$. We then investigate $k$-powerful $au$-perfect numbers and prove results regarding their existence in $mathbbZ[i]$.
