Interesting question. Math can be utilized in karate in many different ways. As far as literal math (i.e. addition, subtraction, multiplication, algebra etc.) there may not be as many examples, but math is seen in karate with the use of angles. When sparring, the use of angles is vital. How a fighter angles their body and strikes on their opponent can be the determining factor in victory or loss. So often in training you will hear comments affiliated with math like "your block is at a 45 degree angle". Math may not be obvious in karate, so its all about reading in between the lines.
