Abstract

In this paper, we propose the descent method with new inexact line-search for unconstrained optimization problems on Riemannian manifolds. The global convergence of the proposed method is established under some appropriate assumptions. We further analyze some convergence rates, namely R-linear convergence rate, superlinear convergence rate and quadratic convergence rate, of the proposed descent method.
