    yes a subdomain is treated just like a domain name.
    Because in fact www.yoursite.com is already a subdomain "www" which is a convention/consensus, but it is still technically a sub domain :-)
    That's why there's a difference between yourdomain.com and www.yourdomain.com

    yes, you need to upload different sitemap and robot.txt for each new sub-domain as they are counted as different website.

    same as with any domain, you need to register the sub domain in analytics just like another domain
