contents By considering a particular type of invariant Seifert surfaces we define a homomorphism $Φ$ from the (topological) equivariant concordance group of directed strongly invertible knots $\widetilde{\mathcal{C}}$ to a new equivariant algebraic concordance group $\widetilde{\mathcal{G}}^{\mathbb{Z}}$. We prove that $Φ$ lifts both Miller and Powell's equivariant algebraic concordance homomorphism, and Alfieri and Boyle's equivariant signature. Moreover, we provide a partial result on the isomorphism type of $\widetilde{\mathcal{G}}^{\mathbb{Z}}$, and we obtain a new obstruction to equivariant sliceness, which can be viewed as an equivariant Fox-Milnor condition. We define new equivariant signatures and using these we obtain novel lower bounds on the equivariant slice genus. Finally, we show that $Φ$ can obstruct equivariant sliceness for knots with Alexander polynomial one.
