Differential difference algebras, introduced by Mansfield and Szanto, arose naturally from differential difference equations. In this paper, we investigate the Gelfand–Kirillov dimension of differential difference algebras. We give a lower bound of the Gelfand–Kirillov dimension of a differential difference algebra and a sufficient condition under which the lower bound is reached; we also find an upper bound of this Gelfand–Kirillov dimension under some specific conditions and construct an example to show that this upper bound cannot be sharpened any further.
