Mathematicians are chronically lost and confused (...
Since philosophy was your favourite, you might enjoy the novels of Greg Egan. As far as I can tell, he puts good mathematics in his stories.

I recently read my first Greg Egan and enjoyed it (Quarantine). Got any recommendations for specifically the ones he put good math into?

Perhaps Incandescence, though it's less about mathematics and more about a society working out the physics of its environment. His website has more maths on it than I recall being in the novels.
