We assess the security of a quantum key distribution protocol relying on the transmission of
Gaussian-modulated coherent states and homodyne detection. This protocol is shown to be …

We study the equivalence of a realistic quantum key distribution protocol using coherent
states and homodyne detection with a formal entanglement purification protocol. Maximally …

We introduce a ternary quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol and asymptotic security
proof based on three coherent states and homodyne detection. Previous work had …

We address security of the quantum key distribution scheme based on the noisy modulation
of coherent states and investigate how it is robust against noise in the modulation regardless …

Quantum continuous variables are being explored,,,,,,,,,,,, as an alternative means to
implement quantum key distribution, which is usually based on single photon counting. The …

We propose a quantum key distribution protocol using Greenberger Horne Zeilinger tripartite
coherent states. The sender and the receiver share similar key by exchanging the …

Secure quantum key distribution with multimode Gaussian entangled states and multimode
homodyne detectors is proposed. In general the multimode character of both the sources of …

Security of a continuous-variable quantum key distribution protocol based on noisy coherent
states and channel is analysed. Assuming that the noise of coherent states is induced by …

We demonstrate that a necessary precondition for an unconditionally secure quantum key
distribution is that both sender and receiver can use the available measurement results to …

We propose the continuous-variable quantum key distribution protocol based on the
Gaussian modulation of a single quadrature of the coherent states of light, which is aimed to …
