Summary:Centrosymmetric matrices are matrices that commute with the permutation matrix $J$, the matrix with ones on its cross-diagonal. This paper generalizes the concept of centrosymmetry, and considers the properties of matrices that commute with an arbitrary permutation matrix $P$, the $P$-commutative matrices. In particular,it focuses on two related classes of matrices: inflation matrices and $ZME$-matrices. The structure of $P$-commutative inflators is determined, and then this is used to characterize the $P$-commutative $ZME$-matrices. Centrosymmetric matrices in these classes are presented as a special case.
