(there be / there have)

1.there is/are/was/were
2.there have

Q1.What are the differences between 1 and 2?

Q2.Please list the usages of there have because I don't know waht are the differences and how to use there have.

I am confused with these two. My teacher taught me there be. I read some sentences that written there have.

Ex. There is a party.
There will be a party.
There is going to be a party.
Can I say:
There have a party.
There will be a party.

Thanks in advance.

There, followed by any tense of the verb to be, is used.
The only uses of have after there that readily spring to mind are as follows:
There have been ...
You can't say, There have a party.
