1. **Problem statement:** Given points $A=1$, $A'=-1$, $B=i$, $B'=-i$ in the complex plane, and a point $M$ with complex number $z$ different from $0, A, A', B, B'$, define points $M_1(z_1)$ and $M_2(z_2)$ such that triangles $BMM_1$ and $AMM_2$ are right-angled isosceles with angles $(\overrightarrow{M_1B}, \overrightarrow{M_1M}) = (\overrightarrow{M_2M}, \overrightarrow{M_2A}) = \frac{\pi}{2}$. Find all points $M$ such that triangle $OM_1M_2$ is equilateral.
2. **Key formulas and rules:**
- A right-angled isosceles triangle with angle $\frac{\pi}{2}$ means the legs are equal and the angle between them is $90^\circ$.
- Rotation by $90^\circ$ in the complex plane corresponds to multiplication by $i$ (counterclockwise) or $-i$ (clockwise).
- For a point $M$ with complex number $z$, the point $M_1$ satisfies $\overrightarrow{M_1B} \perp \overrightarrow{M_1M}$ and $|M_1B|=|M_1M|$.
- Similarly for $M_2$ with respect to $A$ and $M$.
- The triangle $OM_1M_2$ is equilateral means $|OM_1|=|OM_2|=|M_1M_2|$ and angles between sides are $60^\circ$.
3. **Find $M_1$ given $M$:**
- Let $z$ be the complex number of $M$.
- Since $B=i$, the vector $\overrightarrow{M_1B} = z_1 - i$ and $\overrightarrow{M_1M} = z_1 - z$.
- The right angle condition and isosceles condition imply:
$$z_1 - z = i (z_1 - i)$$
(rotation by $90^\circ$ counterclockwise of $\overrightarrow{M_1B}$ gives $\overrightarrow{M_1M}$)
- Solve for $z_1$:
$$z_1 - z = i z_1 - i^2 = i z_1 + 1$$
$$z_1 - i z_1 = z + 1$$
$$z_1(1 - i) = z + 1$$
$$z_1 = \frac{z + 1}{1 - i}$$
4. **Find $M_2$ given $M$:**
- Similarly, $A=1$, so:
$$z_2 - z = i (z_2 - 1)$$
- Solve for $z_2$:
$$z_2 - z = i z_2 - i$$
$$z_2 - i z_2 = z - i$$
$$z_2(1 - i) = z - i$$
$$z_2 = \frac{z - i}{1 - i}$$
5. **Simplify denominators:**
- Note $1 - i = \sqrt{2} e^{-i \pi/4}$, so dividing by $1 - i$ rotates by $\pi/4$ and scales by $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$.
6. **Condition for $OM_1M_2$ equilateral:**
- Points are $O=0$, $M_1=z_1$, $M_2=z_2$.
- Equilateral triangle means:
$$|z_1| = |z_2| = |z_1 - z_2|$$
and the angle between vectors $z_1$ and $z_2$ is $\pm \frac{\pi}{3}$.
7. **Calculate $|z_1|$ and $|z_2|$:**
$$|z_1| = \left| \frac{z + 1}{1 - i} \right| = \frac{|z + 1|}{|1 - i|} = \frac{|z + 1|}{\sqrt{2}}$$
$$|z_2| = \frac{|z - i|}{\sqrt{2}}$$
8. **Calculate $|z_1 - z_2|$:**
$$z_1 - z_2 = \frac{z + 1}{1 - i} - \frac{z - i}{1 - i} = \frac{(z + 1) - (z - i)}{1 - i} = \frac{1 + i}{1 - i}$$
- Note $\frac{1 + i}{1 - i} = i$ (since multiplying numerator and denominator by conjugate $1 + i$ gives $\frac{(1+i)^2}{1^2 + 1^2} = \frac{1 + 2i + i^2}{2} = \frac{1 + 2i -1}{2} = \frac{2i}{2} = i$).
- So $|z_1 - z_2| = |i| = 1$.
9. **Equilateral conditions become:**
$$|z_1| = |z_2| = 1$$
$$\Rightarrow \frac{|z + 1|}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{|z - i|}{\sqrt{2}} = 1$$
$$\Rightarrow |z + 1| = |z - i| = \sqrt{2}$$
10. **Interpretation:**
- $|z + 1| = \sqrt{2}$ means $z$ lies on a circle centered at $-1$ with radius $\sqrt{2}$.
- $|z - i| = \sqrt{2}$ means $z$ lies on a circle centered at $i$ with radius $\sqrt{2}$.
11. **Find intersection of circles:**
- Circle 1: $(x + 1)^2 + y^2 = 2$
- Circle 2: $x^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 2$
12. **Solve system:**
- Expand:
$$x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 = 2$$
$$x^2 + y^2 - 2y + 1 = 2$$
- Simplify:
$$x^2 + y^2 + 2x = 1$$
$$x^2 + y^2 - 2y = 1$$
- Subtract second from first:
$$(x^2 + y^2 + 2x) - (x^2 + y^2 - 2y) = 1 - 1$$
$$2x + 2y = 0$$
$$x + y = 0$$
13. **Substitute $y = -x$ into one circle:**
$$(x + 1)^2 + (-x)^2 = 2$$
$$x^2 + 2x + 1 + x^2 = 2$$
$$2x^2 + 2x + 1 = 2$$
$$2x^2 + 2x - 1 = 0$$
14. **Solve quadratic:**
$$x^2 + x - \frac{1}{2} = 0$$
$$x = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 2}}{2} = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{3}}{2}$$
15. **Find $y$ values:**
$$y = -x = -\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{1 \mp \sqrt{3}}{2}$$
16. **Final points $z = x + iy$:**
$$z_1 = \frac{-1 + \sqrt{3}}{2} + i \frac{1 - \sqrt{3}}{2}$$
$$z_2 = \frac{-1 - \sqrt{3}}{2} + i \frac{1 + \sqrt{3}}{2}$$
**Answer:** The points $M$ such that triangle $OM_1M_2$ is equilateral are exactly the two points
$$z = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{3}}{2} + i \frac{1 \mp \sqrt{3}}{2}.$$
