We study the exponential growth of the codimensions c L of a finite-dimenn sional Lie algebra L over a field of characteristic zero. We show that if the n solvable radical of L is nilpotent then lim c L exists and is an integer.

By the Giambruno-Zaicev theorem for associative p.i. algebras, the exponential rate of growth of the codimensions of such a p.i. algebra is always a positive integer. Here we calculate that integer for various generic p.i. algebras which are given by a single identity. These include Capelli-type id
Let A be an associative PI-algebra over a field F of characteristic zero. By studying the exponential behavior of the sequence of codimensions [c n (A)] of A, we prove that Inv(A)=lim n Γ n c n (A) always exists and is an integer. We also give an explicit way for computing such integer: let B be a f
Let A be a PI-algebra over a field F. We study the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of codimensions c n (A) of A. We show that if A is finitely generated over F then Inv(A)=lim n Γ n c n (A) always exists and is an integer. We also obtain the following characterization of simple algebras: A is fi
