Abstract
We consider two nonlinear equations, the Localized Induction Equation and the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equation, and prove that the solvability of certain initial-boundary value problems for each equation is equivalent through the generalized Hasimoto transformation. As an application, we prove the orbital stability of plane wave solutions of the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation based on stability estimates obtained for the Localized Induction Equation by the author in a paper in preparation. As far as the author knows, this is the first time that the analysis of the Localized Induction Equation, along with the Hasimoto transformation, provided new insight for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation.
