Security of multipartite QKD protocols with finite resources — •Federico Grasselli, Hermann Kampermann, and Dagmar Bruß — Institut für Theoretische Physik III, Heinrich-Heine-Universität, Düsseldorf, Deutschland

We analyze the security of multipartite quantum key distribution protocols implemented with genuine multipartite entangled states as resources [1]. In particular, we focus on finite-size effects.
For this purpose, we consider the generalizations of the notions of security, correctness, secrecy and leakage of a protocol in the multipartite scenario. We then extend the upper bounds to the key length and to the leakage of an optimal error correction scheme -known for bipartite protocols- to the multipartite case.
Furthermore, we present a computable secret key rate for finite resources in the presence of coherent attacks, extending similar results already obtained in the bipartite case [2].
