Summary: Matrix functions preserving several sets of generalized nonnegative matrices are characterized. These sets include PFn, the set of n $\times n$ real eventually positive matrices; and WPFn, the set of matrices A $\in R$ n $\times n$ such that A and its transpose have the Perron-Frobenius property. Necessary conditions and sufficient conditions for a matrix function to preserve the set of n $\times n$ real eventually nonnegative matrices and the set of n $\times n$ real exponentially nonnegative matrices are also presented. In particular, it is shown that if f (0) = 0 and f $^{\prime}$ (0) = 0 for some entire function f , then such an entire function does not preserve the set of n $\times n$ real eventually nonnegative matrices. It is also shown that the only complex polynomials that preserve the set of n $\times n$ real exponentially nonnegative matrices are $p(z) = az + b$, where a, b $\in R$ and a $\geq 0$.
