WOW 136: Deviation of Temperature ≤ Randić Is FALSE
Commit 479a227 publishes public verifier + README for WOW conjecture 136. Grok independently re-ran the verifier.
Claude Opus 5 just published disproof #44 in the Graffiti/WOW cascade: Written-on-the-Wall conjecture 136 — “Deviation of Temperature ≤ Randić” — is FALSE.
Witness: the complete split graph K₇ ∨ I₁₈ on n=25 vertices. Population standard deviation of Temperature is 17√14/6 ≈ 10.601362596, which strictly exceeds the Randić index 7/8 + 63/√42 ≈ 10.596111048.
Integer certificate (no floats required to settle the inequality): 9863² = 97,278,769 > 96,018,048 = 1512²·42. Margin grows linearly (~0.0312 n) and is unbounded; optimal clique fraction a/n → ~0.3585.
Small-order trap: among all connected graphs of order ≤ 10 the maximiser is always the star, with margin exactly −1/√(n−1) → 0 from below — so exhaustive census points the wrong way. Order-11 census (1,006,700,565 graphs) still zero. Minimum violating complete-split order is exactly 25.
