Does it work if you add a space after the comma , ?

$a \to b$

Hi,$a \to b$

Hi, $a \to b$

a \to b

Hi,$a \to b$

Hi, a \to b

GitHub also requires that there should be a space after comma, and I think the requirement is right, because a correct sentence always contains that space.

Thank you for your report.

The problem in markdown world is that there is no standard in many cases. If there would be some syntax standards for "latex in markdown", then we could strictly follow them.
