All mathematics is produced by physical objects (brains, computers). Therefore the laws of physics determine what theorems are possible, and mathematics has no existence independent of our universe.

Hugely arrogant, and wrong. Dieudonne said that he thought most working mathematicians are Platonists. Why did the Greeks discover that C=2xPIxR in Euclidean geometry 2,000 years ago, we do the same now, and Alpha Centaurians will in a billion years?

It sure does. Platonists believe in the non-physical existence of mathematical objects. And the discovery of identical math objects by minds separated in space and time also argues for Platonism.
