Quantum key distribution based on general finite-dimensional systems — •Kedar S. Ranade and Gernot Alber — Institut für Angewandte Physik, Technische Universität Darmstadt

It is well-known that qubit-based quantum key distribution protocols can be generalised to protocols based on higher dimensional information carriers (so-called qudits). We prove security bounds for qudit-based prepare-and-measure protocols, which may use both one-way and two-way error correction, by generic means of evaluating such bounds through associated entanglement-based protocols.
