align multiple multi-lined equations

I have four consecutive equations and wish their equal signs and their numbering to be aligned. So far, i have only achieved the second by individually using equation and split environments. Here's the minimal code:

\documentclass[twocolumn]{article}

\usepackage{amsmath} %math ...

switch from two-column to one-column page without pagebreak

This is really strange. There's a massive amount of scientific papers doing what i'm asking for. Just to be precise, i want, right after the title, to insert a few page-length lines of information about authors,keywords,contact info etc. I tried to suppressing pagebreak for a single command but ...

Seemingly random blank lines between paragraphs

According to the thread i previously mentioned, i already tried using \raggedbottom to no avail. After many tries i may have found the root of the problem. I used bold letters for my title (\title{\textbf{...}}). Removing \textbf{} seems to resolve it. Here's a minimal piece of the code ...

Re: Seemingly random blank lines between paragraphs

Thank you for you answer. You mention that my document uses both indentation and spacing between paragraphs. I don't explicitly Is it because i use \par or because i enforce first paragraph identation? Why isn't it evident among the rest paragraphs? The reason i'm asking is because i want to ...

Seemingly random blank lines between paragraphs

Greetings!

Being a first time user of Latex (Texmaker 3.3.4), i've encountered a peculiar problem. Blank lines appear before and after a specific paragraph of my text (other paragraphs are unaffected), thusly:
