I’m extremely interested in understanding the dynamics of economic models, but I’m not sure how those models are described mathematically. Can you help me by posting links to papers or websites which explicitly describe mathematical models used in economics?

I am very fluent in mathematics, so don’t hold back.

The best I can remember of models from Econ101 is that figuring profit is just an integral of some graph which I don’t remember.

Edit: Thanks for the links, articles, textbooks, etc. I think first thing I’ve noticed is to refer to these models as econometric. Thank you, /r/Economics.
