Abstract: Let n,k,b be integers with 1lek1leblen and let Gn,k,b be the graph whose vertices are the k-element subsets X of 0,dots,n with max(X)min(X)leb and where two such vertices X,Y are joined by an edge if max(XcupY)min(XcupY)leb. These graphs are generated by applying a transformation to maximal k-uniform hypergraphs of bandwidth b that is used to reduce the (weak) edge clique covering problem to a vertex clique covering problem. The bandwidth of Gn,k,b is thus the largest possible bandwidth of any transformed k-uniform hypergraph of bandwidth b. For bgeqfracn+k12, the exact bandwidth of these graphs is determined. For b<fracn+k12, the bandwidth is asymptotically determined in the case of b=o(n) and in the case of b growing linearly in n with a factor , where for one case only bounds could be found. It is conjectured that the upper bound of this open case is the right asymptotic value.
