For a nonzero right module M that is a finitely generated module, choose a finite-dimensional generating vector subspace W and define GKdimA​M=limsupn→∞​log(dimk​WVn)/logn, where V generates the algebra and contains 1. For a left module use VnW. It is independent of these choices and measures polynomial-order growth of a generating filtration of a module.
