An analogue of the Erdős-Gallai theorem for random graphs

Recently, variants of many classical extremal theorems have been proved in the random environment. We, complementing existing results, extend the Erdős-Gallai Theorem in random graphs. In particular, we determine, up to a constant factor, the maximum number of edges in a $P_n$-free subgraph of $G(N,p)$, practically for all values of $N,n$ and $p$. Our work is also motivated by the recent progress on the size-Ramsey number of paths.
