Abstract. In this paper, we derive the evolution equations for the first eigenvalue of operator $\Delta_{p}^{2}-\Delta_{p}$ acting on the space of functions on a closed Riemannian manifold along the Ricci flow. We prove that the first nonzero eigenvalue is nondecreasing under the Ricci flow under certain geometric conditions.
