      \textit{M. Koecher} [Math. Ann. 141, 384-432 (1960; Zbl 0095.25301)] gave an axiomatic treatment of self-dual cones and a corresponding Voronoi algorithm to find generators for certain arithmetic groups. The author observes that a wide range of applications can be made if one generalizes Koecher's axioms to a pair of dual cones. This leads to a powerful algorithm to calculate the normalizer of a finite unimodular group in \(\text{GL}_n(\mathbb{Z})\).
