Let \((N,\omega)\) be a symplectic manifold with an almost complex structure \(J\). Then \(h=\omega\circ J\) is a Riemannian metric. Let \((M,g)\) be a Riemannian manifold and consider a map \(u:M\to N\). The Schrödinger flow is the flow on \(N\) induced by the Hamiltonian vector field \(V_E\) of the energy functional \(E(u)=\int_M e(u) dv_g\) where, in local coordinates, \(e(u)=1/2 g^{\alpha\beta}h_{ij} \partial_\alpha u^i \partial_\beta u^j\). It is shown that the flow of a ferromagnetic chain can be represented as Schrödinger flow of maps into \(S^2\) and that there exists a unique local smooth solution for the initial value problem of the 1-dimensional Schrödinger flow of maps into a Kähler manifold. In the case that the targets are Kähler manifolds with constant curvature, it is proved that the 1-dimensional Schrödinger flow admits a unique global smooth solution.
