Is it accurate that Imam Ali (a) had a son named by Umar ibn Khattab during his caliphate, as stated in Siyar A'laamin Nubala by Imam Dhahabi, volume 4, page 134? Are there other historical sources that verify this claim, or is it considered fabricated?

It is untrue. Imam Ali (AS) never gave any of his sons the name of Umar Ibn Khattab.

We have narrations that one of his sons was called Amr عمرو not Umar عمر . Amr عمرو is a different name.

Are there Shia Hadiths that claim the Quran was altered by the first three caliphs to erase the virtues of Imam Ali? If so, how are they explained by the scholars?

Quranic verses are intact and no one can alter any verse. The enemies of Ahlul Bayt (AS) tried to twist the meanings of many verse to drive it away from its real Tafseer.

How did unidentified narrators make their way into Shia books? How is it possible for fabricated hadiths from unknown narrators to be included in Shia books despite the scarce but true followers of the Imams?

Just because a hadith has an unknown narrator does not mean for certain it was fabricated. Possibly the narrator was known in the past, but we do not know them now because we have lost books and information. Also, possibly the information in the hadith is correctly transmitted even if we don't know the transmitter. It is better to say that hadith with unknown narrators lack verification.

How can Shia claim to have acquired knowledge from Imams if there are many fabricated hadiths in the chain of narration between Imams and the authors of Usul-e-Arba'a? Or are all these chains of narration considered authentic?

Same question should be put for Sunni books of Hadeeth. Thousands of narration were been fabricated by Sunni narrators for different reasons, so how Sunni Ulama identify the authentic? Our Shia scholars do thorough research on every narration and all its narrators. We don't accept but the narration which is according to Quran and authentic Hadeeth and which has been narrated by authentic narrators one after another. Our main books of Hadeeth have much more authentic Hadeeths that what our Sunni brothers have in their books of Hadeeth.

Imam Ali b. Abi Talib . Sunni-Shi'a . Fabricated Traditions

Why are there narrations in some books about Imam Ali (as) that suggest that he was bald and had a great stomach? Are these fabricated?

The enemies of Imam Ali (AS) have fabricated a meaning of a saying from the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) to Imam Ali (AS) away from the real meaning. The Hadeeth is narrated in Shia and Sunni books that the Prophet (SAWA) told Imam Ali (AS) : Be happy,you are al-Anza' al-Bateen, No Shrik at all in you, and you are full of I'lm knowledge. ( Faraa'id al- Simtain by al- Jowaini 1/308 and a;-Manaaqib by al-Maghaazili 400 and Musnad Zayd Ibn Ali 456).

The enemies of Ahlul Bayt (AS) fabricated another meaning which completely away from the statement of the Prophet (SAWA), and claimed another meaning which suits their ill feelings against Imam Ali (AS).

Imam Ali (AS) is the Anza' الأنزع who has no Shirk at all in him, not the bold as they claimed. He was the Bateen البطين who is full of knowledge , not as they falsely claimed.
