    The author introduces the Bakry-Emery technique to Ricci flow, which can simplify the complicated and long computation as done before. He proves the evolution equation for the Bakry-Emery scalar curvature. He also consider some gradient stimates of Ricci curvature and \(L^{2}\)-estimates of scalar curvature.
