Take a look at the use cases of sequence diagrams from this link. It is stated that:

A sequence diagram shows an interaction, which represents the sequence of messages between instances of classes, components, subsystems, or actors. Time flows down the diagram, and it shows the flow of control from one participant to another. Use sequence diagrams to visualize instances and events, instead of classes and methods. More than one instance of the same type can appear on the diagram. More than one occurrence of the same message can also appear.

One to one, zero to many, one to many etc. are class diagram relationship indicators and you can not use them in sequence diagrams because they are irrevelant. Also, you may want to take a look at this link
