He introduced Vinberg's algorithm and the Koecher–Vinberg theorem.

He was a recipient of the 1997 Humboldt Prize.^[1] He was on the executive committee of the Moscow Mathematical Society. In 1983, he was an Invited Speaker with a talk on Discrete reflection groups in Lobachevsky spaces at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Warsaw. In 2010, he was elected an International Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.^[2]
