Security Analysis of Unidimensional Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution Using Uncertainty Relations

We study the equivalence between the entanglement-based scheme and prepare-and-measure scheme of unidimensional (UD) continuous-variable quantum key distribution protocol. Based on this equivalence, the physicality and security of the UD coherent-state protocols in the ideal detection and realistic...
