The sparse random-graph path decomposition conjecture

Let GGn,pG\sim G_{n,p}, where p=o(1)p=o(1) and pn/lognpn/\log n\to\infty, and let odd(G)odd(G) denote the number of odd-degree vertices of GG. Sparse random-graph path decomposition conjecture. Asymptotically almost surely, GG can be decomposed into odd(G)/2odd(G)/2 paths. This would extend the paper's exact path-decomposition result for constant edge probability into a sparse regime; the stated range is left as a belief in the source and is not proved there.
