What is the difference between lighter than air vehicles and heavier than air vehicles?
Just, simply, Lighter than Air Vehicles are lighter than air, so that makes them fly, and Heavier than air vehicles are heavier than air, but they use airfoils on the wings to fly.
What are lighter than air vehicles?
Lighter than air vehicles are vehicles which fly by reducing their overall weight to zero or near zero. This is done by using a large envelope or balloon filled with a lighter-than-air gas such as helium or hot air to lift the vehicle.

Why are aircraft categorized into lighter than air vehicles?
The FAA is very specific to categorize lighter than air vehicles as a separate type of aircraft because of the way they handle and perform. Lighter than air vehicles are very slow and difficult to maneuver. Indeed most hot-air balloons have no method at all to control steering or velocity, the pilot only controls the vehicle on the up/down axis. As a result lighter-than-air vehicles must always have the right-of-way over all other types of aircraft. Additionally, pilots of lighter-than-air vehicles must be very cautious not to enter congested airspace without prior permission because of the danger they can pose to other airspace users.

What is the difference between lighter than air and heavier than air vehicles?
Heavier than air vehicles, such as jet airplanes, are heavy and cannot easily float without propulsion. Lighter than air vehicles, such as a glider, are light enough to glide without propulsion Lighter-than-Air vehcicles means that the vehicle gets its Lift from its bouyancy. Regular aircraft get their lift from the wings due to its forward motion through the air. Gliders do not have propulsion but their wings are very long and produce enough lift to keep them flying.
Why are aircrafts catergorized into heavier-than-air and lighter-than-air vehicles?
hot air balloon, jets, airplanes, etc.
Why are aircraft categorized into heavier-than-air and heavier-than-air vehicles?

What are some lighter than air aircrafts?
blimp or hot air balloons are lighter than air crafts
What is a LTA Vehicle?
LTA vehicles are a new concept design of vehicles that are "lighter than air." LTA projects are often seen in schools to test students ability to design. LTA vehicles may be constructed with balsa wood, balloons, epoxy, and helium.
