Abstract : Using the differential constraint method, a class of exact solutions is obtained for
the homogeneous quasilinear hyperbolic system of partial differential equations
describing Chaplygin gas equation; these solutions exhibit linearly degenerate that leads
to the formation of contact discontinuities. In fact, in this paper, we solved the gen-
eralized Riemann problem through a characteristic shock(s). For several classes of
non-constant and smooth initial data, the solution to the generalized Riemann problem
is presented.
