Abstract:
      This paper discusses a circular version of choosability of series-parallel graphs. Let $\chi_{c,l}$ denote the circular choosability (or the circular list chromatic number). This paper proves that serial-parallel graphs of girth at least $4n+1$ have circular choosability at most $2+1/n$.
