Quantum networks will provide multi-node entanglement over long distances to enable secure communication on a global scale. Traditional quantum communication protocols consume pair-wise entanglement, which is sub-optimal for distributed…

A new 4-pass Key-Agreement Protocol is presented. The security of the protocol mainly relies on the existence of a (polynomial-computable) One-Way-Function and the supposed computational hardness of solving a specific system of equations.
