In mathematics, more specifically in the field of ring theory, a ring R has unbounded generating number (UGN) if, for each positive integer m, any set of generators for the free right R-module Rm has cardinality ≥m.[1]

Rings with unbounded generating number have in the literature also been referred to as satisfying the rank condition.[2]

The definition is left–right symmetric, so it makes no difference whether we define UGN in terms of left or right modules; the two definitions are equivalent.[3]
