A matrix Q of order n is called k-quasi-g-circulant if it satisfies
PkQ = QPkg,
where P represents the permutation (1 2 ... n), (n,g)=1, and the exponents are mod n.
We prove that if (k,n)=h, a matrix Q is k-quasi-g-circulant if and only if it is h-quasi-g-circulant; then Q is a block g-circulant matrix of type (q,h), and we give a characterization for these matrices. Moreover, we define a perfect k-quasi-g-circulant permutation, and we prove that the set of these permutations is an imprimitive group of order φ(k)kqk, where φ(k) is the Euler function of k, that is the number of positive integers not greater than and prime to k.
