Finite Groups with Submultiplicative Spectra
  We study abstract finite groups with the property, called property $\hat{s}$, that all of their subrepresentations have submultiplicative spectra. Such groups are necessarily nilpotent and we focus on $p$-groups. $p$-groups with property $\hat{s}$ are regular. Hence, a 2-group has property $\hat{s}$ if and only if it is commutative. For an odd prime $p$, all $p$-abelian groups have property $\hat{s}$, in particular all groups of exponent $p$ have it. We show that a 3-group or a metabelian $p$-group ($p \ge 5$) has property $\hat{s}$ if and only if it is V-regular.
