A clutter is a family \(F\) of subsets of a ground set \(V\) with the property that \(A\nsubseteq B\) for all distinct \(A,B\in F\). A clutter is ideal if \[ \bigl\{x\geq 0:x(A)\geq 1\text{ for all }A\in F\bigr\} \] is an integral polyhedron. The authors present the state of the art of the topic and pose open questions.
