Finding them
You do not need the exact name. Each command answers to the words people actually use — "tile" and "move" find the snap commands, "expand" and "fullscreen" find Maximise, "hide" finds Minimise, "quit" and "exit" find Close.
Worth binding
These are the commands that most repay a shortcut, because the whole point is not breaking your flow to reach for the mouse. Assign them under Settings → Shortcuts, or put the four you use on the Pivit Wheel — the wheel's directional layout maps naturally onto snapping, since up-left really is "snap top left".
Four of the eight default wheel slots are window commands for exactly this reason.
