We present a protocol for performing state merging when multiple parties share a single copy of a mixed state, and analyze the entanglement cost in terms of min- and max-entropies. Our protocol allows for interpolation between corner points of the rate region without the need for time-sharing, a primitive which is not available in the one-shot setting. We also compare our protocol to the more naive strategy of repeatedly applying a single-party merging protocol one party at a time, by performing a detailed analysis of the rates required to merge variants of the embezzling states. Finally, we analyze a variation of multiparty merging, which we call split-transfer, by considering two receivers and many additional helpers sharing a mixed state. We give a protocol for performing a split-transfer and apply it to the problem of assisted entanglement distillation.
