Abstract: In this paper, we investigate an equivariant homeomorphism of the boundaries $partialX$ and $partialY$ of two proper CAT(0) spaces $X$ and $Y$ on which a CAT(0) group $G$ acts geometrically. We provide a sufficient condition and an equivalent condition to obtain a $G$-equivariant homeomorphism of the boundaries $partialX$ and $partialY$ as a continuous extension of the quasi-isometry $phi:G{x}_{0}ightarrowG{y}_0$ defined by $phi(g{x}_0)=g{y}_0$, where $x_{0}inX$ and $y_{0}inY$. In this paper, we say that a CAT(0) group $G$ is {it equivariant (boundary) rigid}, if $G$ determines its ideal boundary by the equivariant homeomorphisms as above. As an application, we introduce some examples of (non-)equivariant rigid CAT(0) groups and we show that if Coxeter groups $W_1$ and $W_2$ are equivariant rigid as reflection groups, then so is $W_1\ast W_2$. We also provide a conjecture on non-rigidity of boundaries of some CAT(0) groups.
