LX-mixers for QAOA: Optimal mixers restricted to subspaces and the stabilizer formalism

We present a novel formalism to both understand and construct mixers that preserve a given subspace. The method connects and utilizes the stabilizer formalism that is used in error correcting codes. This can be useful in the setting when the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA), a popul...
