Necessary Schnorr signature non-interactive challenge bindings

It's a rather contrived scenario, but suppose that there are two verification keys $X_1=x_1G$ and $X_2=x_2G$ belonging to two distinct signers and suppose that the attacker does not know either $x_1$ …

Is the security of a Schnorr signature dependent on the hash function that is used?

It does contribute to the security. In particular, the hash function $H$ must be “random prefix preimage resistant” in order to be safe from Key Only forgeries and “random prefix second preimage resis …

Convert a Schnorr Public Key to a compressed ECDSA Public Key

TL;DR 0x02 for an unmodified Schnorr signature scheme with typical implicit $y$ coordinates; with BIP0340 one can only convert if one has access to the private key (see fgrieu's answer). Background El …
