[For the entire collection see Zbl 0722.00021.] Let \(F\) be a field, and denote by \(F(z)\) the quotient field of the polynomial ring of \(F\) in the indeterminate \(z\). Given an automorphism \(\mathcal A\) of the multiplicative group \(GL_ m(F(z))\) of all regular \(m\times m\) matrices over \(F(z)\), the rational matrix \(W\in GL_ m(F(z))\) is called \(\mathcal A\)-symmetric if \({\mathcal A}(W)=W\). The aim of the authors is to describe all \(\mathcal A\)-symmetric rational matrices and all factorizations of \(\mathcal A\)-symmetric rational matrices with factors which are also \(\mathcal A\)-symmetric, and to characterize the elementary \(\mathcal A\)-symmetric matrices. In particular, they analyze the case where \(F=\mathbb{C}\) and the automorphism \(\mathcal A\) is of one of the types (Ia) \({\mathcal A}(W)(z)=M^{-1}W\circ\varphi(z)M\), (Ib) \({\mathcal A}(W)(z)=M^{-1}\overline{W\circ\varphi(\bar z)M}\), (IIa) \({\mathcal A}(W)(z)=M^{-1}[W\circ\varphi(z)]^{-1T}M\), (IIb) \({\mathcal A}(W)(z)=M^{-1}[W\circ\varphi(\bar z)]^{-1*}M\), where \(M\) is a fixed invertible matrix and \(\varphi\) a Möbius transformation. The final topic of the paper is the description of the degree preserving automorphisms of \(GL_ n(F(z))\).
