Can a landlord hold a tenant responsible for a lease agreement if the tenant was not mentally competent and no attorney was present at the signing of the lease agreement?
Did a court adjudicate the tenant as incompetent? Then, if and when the landlord sues, that would provide the basis for a defense. You can't stop the landlord from trying to recover damages.
How much notice does a landlord have to give a tenant who has violated the existing tenancy agreement?

Tenant never switched gas into their own name. The landlord paid the bill for 7 months and then stopped. What are the tenant's rights?
If the lease agreement states that the tenant should switch the account to their name and pay the gas bill then the tenant should pay the landlord back. If there was no written agreement, or understanding, that the tenant pay the gas bill then you could try filing a complaint with the town, housing court, landlord-tenant agency, etc., if the landlord simply stopped providing heat and hot water. If the understanding was that the tenant pay their gas, they never switched the account to their name and the landlord didn't notice for seven months, then the tenant should start paying the gas bill and hope the landlord doesn't sue them for all the prior gas charges.
Should a Landlord have any type of written agreement with his tenant's subleaser?
If the landlord has such an agreement between a tenant and his subleaser, then the subleaser is no longer a subleasor, and becomes a co-tenant, who would have the same rights as the original tenant. Most landlords don't like subleasers because they are not bound by the same terms as the tenant. By the same token the subleaser is in a bad position because he doesn't have the same rights as a tenant, and can be kicked out at any time.
When a tenant makes a permanent improvement to a rented residential property should the tenant leave it when moving?
Yes. Since the tenant affixed the improvement to the property, it becomes a fixture, which belongs to the landlord. An exception to this is if there was an agreement between the landlord and tenant, or if the landlord gives permission for the improvement to be removed. Standard picture hooks, and other like objects, do not constitute fixtures, and may be removed if they belong to the tenant.

If a tenant's landlord made a mistake on the lease agreement, the tenant should bring it to the landlord's attention and discuss how to correct the error. It is important to communicate clearly and document any changes made to the lease agreement in writing. If necessary, seek legal advice to ensure that the tenant's rights are protected.

In most states, if a lease term is for a fixed amount of time, such as a year, and the tenant breaks lease by moving out early, the landlord can sue for the amount of time it took for the landlord to get a new tenant or for lease to expire, whichever comes first. It is for a month-to-month tenancy, then the landlord has no grounds for suing for future rents.
