What is the difference between mashed potatoes and creamed potatoes?
Mashed potatoes are mashed. Creamed potatoes are prepared with a cream sauce and are thinner than mashed potatoes... and creamier! It usually involves butter and heavy cream, or sometimes milk and flour. There are, of course, many different ways to prepare each, but they are texturally different. Whipped potatoes is another variation, and requires an electric mixer.

What is the ratio of heavy cream when substituting for milk?
That depends on what you're substituting it in. If its baking, I wouldn't do it. Heavy cream has a much higher fat content, and will throw off a baking recipe. If you're just substituting it in mashed potatoes, or soup, or a sauce, I'd use it 1:1, one cup for one cup. You'll just end up with a richer tasting, smoother end product with better mouth feel, that's all.

Can heavy cream be substituted with whole milk?
It depends on what kind of recipe you are using. Never substitute cream for milk when baking because cream has a much higher fat content than milk, and it will throw the balance of fats, sugars, protein, etc. off and possibly harm your results. In general, if you want to substitute cream for milk in a cooking recipe, that should be fine, you may even like it better, in sauces, for example, you will get a smoother mouth feel and better taste (fat tastes good). I especially like using cream instead of butter in mashed potatoes, it takes them from great to extraordinary.
Can whipping cream be used as a substitute for light cream?
You can do anything you like in cooking. However, this particular substitution is not ideal. Whipping cream is a heavy cream, not a light cream. A mixture of whipping cream and milk would be a better substitution.
