Abstract
This paper studies the Riemann problem of the isentropic relativistic Euler equations for a Chaplygin gas. The solutions exactly include five kinds. The first four consist of different contact discontinuities while the rest involves delta-shock waves. Under suitable generalized Rankine–Hugoniot relation and entropy condition, the existence and uniqueness of delta-shock solutions are established.
