Abstract: Let M be a compact n-dimensional manifold,

n g e 2

, with metric g(t) evolving by the Ricci flow

p a r t i a l g_{i j} / p a r t i a l t = - 2 R_{i j}

in (0,T) for some

T i n B b b R^{+} c u p i n f t y

with

g (0) = g_{0}

. Let

l a m b d a_{0} (g_{0})

be the first eigenvalue of the operator

- D e l t a_{g_{0}} + f r a c R (g_{0}) 4

with respect to g_0. We extend a recent result of R. Ye and prove uniform logarithmic Sobolev inequality and uniform Sobolev inequalities along the Ricci flow for any

n g e 2

when either

T < i n f t y

or

l a m b d a_{0} (g_{0}) > 0

. As a consequence we extend Perelman's local

k a p p a

-noncollapsing result along the Ricci flow for any

n g e 2

in terms of upper bound for the scalar curvature when either

T < i n f t y

or

l a m b d a_{0} (g_{0}) > 0

.
