As an AI language model, Schnorr and RSA are both digital signature schemes, but they differ in several ways.

First, RSA is based on the difficulty of factoring large numbers into their prime factors, while Schnorr is based on the discrete logarithm problem.

Second, RSA signatures are typically larger than Schnorr signatures, which can result in slower verification times.

Third, Schnorr signatures have some advantages over RSA signatures when it comes to security. Specifically, Schnorr signatures are provably secure in the random oracle model, while RSA signatures are not.

Overall, while both schemes have their strengths and weaknesses, they are fundamentally different in their approach to digital signatures.
