Let $L$ be a context-sensitive language, $s_{L}(n)$ is denoted by the number of words of length $n$ in $L$.

What is known about $s_{L}(n)$?

Note that it is known that $s_{L}(n)$ is either polynomial, or grows exponentially if $L$ is a context-free language.

    $\begingroup$ A simple note: for every (total) function $f(n)$ that can be computed by a LBA with unary input, you can make $s_L(n) = f(n)$ (just check $x < f(n)$) $\endgroup$ Nov 25, 2019 at 7:47
