Abstract: Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative and background independent approach to Quantum Gravity in 4-dimensions. Many new progresses of the theory have been made in recent years. In this talk, I provide an introduction to the covariant dynamics of LQG, which is also known as spinfoam formalism.
