  A damped Newton's method to find a singularity of a vector field in
Riemannian setting is presented with global convergence study. It is ensured
that the sequence generated by the proposed method reduces to a sequence
generated by the Riemannian version of the classical Newton's method after a
finite number of iterations, consequently its convergence rate is
superlinear/quadratic. Moreover, numerical experiments illustrate that the
damped Newton's method has better performance than Newton's method in number of
iteration and computational time.
