Is it true that mathematical theories can be empirically disconfirmed through physical observation?

Yes. Empirical studies across various scientific and technical domains routinely use physical observation and experimental data to test, constrain, and falsify mathematical models and theories.

The analysis

The claim states that mathematical theories can be empirically disconfirmed through physical observation. Multiple papers (e.g., [0], [4], [8]) provide direct examples where mathematical models, predictions, or requirements are tested against and falsified by physical experiments or observations. No papers refute the claim.
