| Popis: | Quantum conference key agreement facilitates secure communication among multiple parties through multipartite entanglement and is anticipated to be an important cryptographic primitive for future quantum networks. However, the experimental complexity and low efficiency associated with the synchronous detection of multipartite entangled states have significantly hindered their practical application. In this work, we propose a measurement-device-independent conference key agreement protocol that utilizes asynchronous Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state measurement.This approach achieves a linear scaling of the conference key rate among multiple parties, exhibiting performance similar to that of the single-repeater scheme in quantum networks. The asynchronous measurement strategy bypasses the need for complex global phase locking technologies, concurrently extending the intercity transmission distance with composable security in the finite key regime. Additionally, our work also showcases the advantages of the asynchronous pairing concept in multiparty quantum entanglement. Comment: 21 pages, 7 figures |
