This paper generalizes the proximal point method using Bregman distances to solve convex and quasiconvex optimization problems on noncompact Hadamard manifolds. We will proved that the sequence generated by our method is well defined and converges to an optimal solution of the problem. Also, we obtain the same convergence properties for the classical proximal method, applied to a class of quasiconvex problems. Finally, we give some examples of Bregman distances in non-Euclidean spaces.
