For a matrix pencil A 0 x − A 1 , where A 0 and A 1 are (n × n) -matrices over an arbitrary field F , and A0 is a nonsingular matrix, we establish the normal form with respect to semiscalar equivalence. We also describe the structure of nonsingular polynomial matrices over the field F , which can be reduced to the established form by the transformations of semiscalar equivalence.
