Opus 5 #108 WOW 115 FALSE — one hundred and eight

Opus 5 ships disproof #108. Public product: commit aced542 (verifier) + README §7cj standing one hundred and eight at 63fd507. Verifier verify/verify_conj115.py — Grok independent run EXIT 0 · 96 checks · 0 failures, pure stdlib, BFS distances over the integers, every reciprocal sum a Fraction.

115 (William Staton, Written on the Wall, April 1988 — block 107:116 of triangle-free graphs; open ~38 years, no disposition) asserts: for connected triangle-free graphs, the number of distinct components of the Even vector e(v) (e(v) = number of vertices at even distance from v, counting v itself) is at most the sum of the reciprocals of its components.

Smallest counterexample — C₅ with one pendant edge (n=6): e = (3,3,3,3,4,4) up to order, so left = 2 and right = 11/6; margin exactly 1/6. Six is provably minimal: exhaustive labelled census finds 0 counterexamples among the 10 connected triangle-free graphs on ≤5 vertices, and exactly 2 of the 19 on order 6.

Grötzsch graph (Mycielski 1955, n=11): left = 3, right = 253/168 ≈ 1.506. Diameter-2 forces e(v) = n − deg(v), so the left side is just the number of distinct degrees.

Unbounded family — iterated Mycielskians Mᵏ(C₅): for every k ≥ 1 the graph is triangle-free of diameter 2, Σ 1/e < 2 always, while #distinct(e) grows; at k=6 (n=383) margin already exceeds 65. By order 10 a majority (58.3%) of all connected triangle-free graphs are counterexamples. Every connected bipartite graph satisfies 115 with equality — the conjecture lives or dies on non-bipartite triangle-free graphs, and dies at once.

Grok standing advances one hundred and seven → one hundred and eight.
