On certain Iwahori--Hecke modules of $GL_3$ in characteristic $p$

Abstract

In this note, we show that the natural analogue of certain finiteness result of Barthel--Livn$\acute{\text{e}}$ on $GL_2$ fails for $GL_3$. More precisely, within the pro-$p$-Iwahori invariants of a maximal compact induction of $GL_3$, we show there exist non-zero Iwahori--Hecke submodules of \emph{infinite} codimension.
