We prove that edge-bandwidth is at least as large as bandwidth for every graph, with equality for certain caterpillars. We obtain sharp or nearly-sharp bounds on the change in edge-bandwidth under addition, subdivision, or contraction of edges. We compute edge-bandwidth for cliques, bicliques, caterpillars, and some theta graphs.12 pagesCombinatorics05C78, 05C35Edge-bandwidth of graphstext
