Abstract

Using more precise majorizing sequences we provide a finer convergence analysis than before [1], [7] of Newton’s method in Riemannian manifolds with the following advantages: weaker hypotheses, finer error bounds on the distances involved and a more precise information on the location of the singularity of the vector field.
