Abstract

We study the exponential rate of growth of the sequence of proper, Lie and Jordan codimensions of an associative algebra. We show that for any finite dimensional associative algebra, the exponential rates of growth can be explicitly computed and are strictly related to the PI-exponent of the algebra.
