    After the explaining some notations on Denjoy maps in the circle, which will be used, the author proves the existence of \(\mathbb{Z}_m\)-equivariant Denjoy maps. For simplicity of the presentation firstly the author constructs a Cantor set, which is invariant under the rotation \(R_{\frac{1}{2}}\), then he proves the existence of \(\mathbb{Z}_2\)-equivariant Denjoy maps in the circle with the constructed Cantor set as its minimal set. A detailed proof is given for the case \(m=2\). In the general case \(m>2\), the basic steps of the proof are given. These constructions are the basics for the proof of the statement that for \(\mathbb{Z}_m\)-equivariant homeomorphisms one can not guarantee that their rotation numbers are rational and allow to prove the existence of \(\mathbb{Z}_m\)-equivariant homeomorphisms with some complicated and interesting dynamic features. In conclusion, the author proves the existence of homeomorphisms of the plane, which induce a symmetric Denjoy maps in the space of prime maps, at the usage of some results of the work [\textit{L. Hernández-Corbato} et al., Math. Proc. Camb. Philos. Soc. 153, No. 1, 59--77 (2012; Zbl 1267.37040)].
