Amendig the previous answer by fkraiem, let me focus on an example returning $1$. Schnorr verification equation could be rewritten: $$g^{r} h^{-c} a^{-1} = 1$$ for a group generator $g$, Prover response $r$, Verifier challenge $c$, initial message of Prover $a$ and public key $h$ such that $h = g^x$ for some private key $x$. With this protocol, Prover ...
