Which ones are violations and which ones are not.

A. Legal.
B. Legal.
C. Not possible until A occurs. Then, it become illegal to start a new dribble.
A1's dribble doesn't end when A1 leaves the ball, it is just interrupted. A1 may resume that dribble or end that dribble legally as long as they are inbounds when they do so.
If A1 is able to leave the ball with B1 so close and still be able to return inbounds and get get the ball, B1 doesn't deserve the benefit of the violation.
