The Hilbert basis of the cone
C is computed by the
Project-and-Lift-algorithm by Raymond Hemmecke (see below). It computes a Hilbert basis of
the cone modulo the lineality space, so it returns the list of one column matrices that give
the Hilbert basis of the Cone if one adds the basis of the lineality space and its negative.

computation of Hilbert bases of cones, in A. M. Cohen, X.-S. Gao, and N. Takayama,
