Diagnosing collisions in the interior of a wormhole

Two distant black holes can be connected in the interior through a wormhole. Such a wormhole has been interpreted as an entangled state shared between two exterior regions. If Alice and Bob send signals into each of the black holes, then they can meet in the interior. In this paper, we interpret this meeting in terms of the quantum circuit that prepares the entangled state: Alice and Bob sending signals creates growing perturbations in the circuit, whose overlap represents their meeting inside the wormhole. We argue that such overlap in the circuit is quantified by a particular six-point correlation function. Therefore, exterior observers in possession of the entangled qubits can use this correlation function to diagnose the collision in the interior without having to jump in themselves.
