We prove that for all $m_1,m_2,m_3 \in \mathbb{N},~ \frac{1}{m_1}+\frac{1}{m_2}+\frac{1}{m_3} \leq 1$, every unitary scalar operator $\gamma I$ on a complex infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is a product $\gamma I = U_1 U_2 U_3$ where $U_i$ is a unitary operator such that $U_i^{m_i} = I$.

We prove that every Schur representation of a poset corresponding to $\widetilde{E_8}$ can be unitarized with some character.

We study a relation between brick $n$-tuples of subspaces of a finite dimensional linear space, and irreducible $n$-tuples of subspaces of a finite dimensional Hilbert (unitary) space such that a linear combination, with positive coefficients, of orthogonal projections onto these subspaces equals the identity operator. We prove that brick systems of one-dimensional subspaces and the systems obtained from them by applying the Coxeter functors (in particular, all brick triples and quadruples of subspaces) can be unitarized. For each brick triple and quadruple of subspaces, we describe sets of characters that admit a unitarization.
