در والایی ریاضی، بدون مقایسه میان دو چیز، حکم به بزرگی، عظمت و شکوه می‌شود و می‌گوییم: «این کوه بزرگ است» و منظور از بزرگی، مطلق بزرگی است. به بیان کانت، منظور از «مطلقاً بزرگ» یعنی «چیزی که ماورای هر قیاسی بزرگ است». (16)

شگفتی/هراس ناشی از پدیده بسیار عظیم/نجومی

It doesn't really have anything to do with ریاضی. Please read the following sentences. For more info, you can refer to the given link.

The mathematical sublime is an experience of overwhelming vastness; it is caused by objects that appear infinitely large.

The mathematical sublime occurs when an object is too large to be perceived as a whole, while the dynamical sublime is caused by frightening phenomena. In both instances displeasure is succeeded by pleasure: the mathematical sublime indicates that we can make use of theoretical Reason and the dynamical sublime reveals a respect for the moral law within us.

Another option: احساس حیرت و هراس از پدیده غول آسا/بسیار عظیم
Peer comment(s):

neutral Mahmoud Akbari : In Kant's philosophy, امر والای ریاضی and امر والای زیبا are used.I always follow my judgement not repetition.Repetition doesn't necessarily mean sth is correct or otherwise! Also, the equivalent needs to be, in one word, "sublime" just like its original.

Thank you, Mahmoud. والایی ریاضی has been used three times without repetition. I don't think it's enough to rely on it. Moreover, والایی ریاضی doesn't really make sense! It doesn't convey the meaning of vastness of an object.
