    The author considers semigroups generated by a finite set of \(n\times n\) matrices over a field. Its entropy is the logarithmic growth rate of the number of words of length \(m\) having nonzero product. The author obtains the structure of subgroups of entropy zero and shows that they have polynomial growth.
