    The authors consider the Riemann problem for the Euler system of conservation laws for a perfect isentropic Chaplygin gas in special relativity. Solutions are classified: four classes consist of contact discontinuities, while the fifth class is a delta-shock. The generalized Rankine-Hugoniot relation and the overcompressive entropy conditions are proposed; then the existence and uniqueness of the delta-shock is proven.
