Greg Egan's diaspora is in this list of 12 books. They chose the novel Diaspora, but many of his short stories and novels are very mathematical. I remember stories about a toric universe, or playing football on a relativistic field (with a pseudo-Riemannian geometry)…
A big miss in this list is Christopher Priest's "Inverted world", about living in a non-Euclidean world.
I've other SF books with a of focus on math, from the "The stochastic man" to "Ninefox gambit", but they were either not enjoyable or with ridiculous mathematical contents.
