A lattice Delaunay polytope is known as perfect if the only ellipsoid, that can be circumscribed about it, is its Delaunay sphere. Perfect Delaunay polytopes are in one-to-one correspondence with arithmetic equivalence classes of positive quadratic functions on the n-dimensional integral lattice that can be recovered, up to a scale factor, from the representations of its minimum. We develop a structural theory of such polytopes and describe all known perfect Delaunay polytopes in dimensions one through eight. We suspect that this list is complete.
