Description: This work applies a [[4,2,2]] error-detection code to improve QAOA for solving Max-Cut on a square graph. By post-selecting samples based on stabilizer measurements, the method significantly increases the probability of finding optimal solutions. This demonstrates that error detection protocols can enhance variational quantum algorithms.
