I admit, I don't quite understand how to ground morality on a mathematical structure

Well, look at things like TDT/UDT for starters.

Though TDT and UDT weren't designed to be moral as such; it just turns out that non-self-defeating behavior seems to necessitate some degree of something like morality, largely because self-ness is a slippery idea.
