What the differences between Debian kernel and pve kernel?
Just drivers or something else? Can I use, for example, Archlinux for running PVE?

Proxmox VE kernels are optimized for the use with KVM and OpenVZ running on server hardware - there are hundreds of several sources, patches and drivers. And they are tested in our labs and from our community.

Can I use, for example, Archlinux for running PVE?

I do not understand this question.

Can I use not pve-patched kernel for starting pve environment? Not for production but for home-using/testing. Can it be running?

how should we know if a kernel which is not from us works? we know a lot but we have no visionaries here. so the answer is no.

Okay. Lets the kernel support all necessary drivers for the current hardware, kvm and lvm. Is it enough to run PVE?

Simply download both kernel sources and compare them - then you know the exact difference.
