before responsive design we need mobile specific sitemaps, but with responsive design they were not needed.
But with introduction of Accelerate Mobile Pages (AMP), we are again having mobile specific URLs, so my questions are:

No, then. Sitemaps submit the canonical URLs from the site.
The main reason why you should consider adding more than one sitemaps is not only to minimize crowding of links, but also to ensure that all pages are crawled and indexed by the search engines. Multiple sitemaps are very efficient in classifying and categorizing the content in a website.
Sitemaps contain the canonical link for a post or page. AMP links are an alternative link and are listed in the source code for the post/page. On a non-AMP post/page: Canonical: <link rel="canonical" href="https://example.com/postname/" />
Once you've created your Sitemap, log in to your Google Account and submit it using the Add a Mobile Sitemap page. Specify the markup language that the URLs listed in the mobile Sitemap serve. Once you've submitted the mobile Sitemap it will be listed on your My Sitemaps page as a "Mobile" type.
No need providing you have a rel="amphtml" link in your regular page to tell crawlers the AMP HTML version as discussed here:
https://www.ampproject.org/docs/guides/discovery.html
Similarly your AMP pages should have a rel="canonical" link to point to real page, to avoid search engines thinking you have duplicate content.
In fact for Google, in the Google Search Console for you site there is an AMP section (under Search Appearance section) that shows all AMP pages it has found and if there are any problems with them.

As BazzaDP said their no need for separate sitemap.But you need to add rel="amphtml" to the top of the page. But it is good to have separate site map for AMP page, the major reason is Google crawler will learn how your site interacts having a separate sitemap for amp will make it easy for Google Crawler to detect and display in search result though it is not necessary. My opinion if making sitemap for amp page is difficult for your stack leave it, If it not do it. As this will allow other search engine to detect easily. Creating separate sitemap doesn't give you any advantage.
As for your question, there is no need for it.
