On a4+b4+c4+d4=(a+27(b+c+d))4a^4+b^4+c^4+d^4=(a+27(b+c+d))^4 and ten other new infinite families

Abstract: In 2008, Jacobi and Madden proved that a<sup>4+b<sup>4+c<sup>4+d<sup>4=e<sup>4a<sup>4+b<sup>4+c<sup>4+d<sup>4=e<sup>4 has infinitely many primitive solutions with the linear relation e=a+b+c+de=a+b+c+d. We extend their result to relations with rational cubes e=a+k<sup>3(b+c+d)e=a+k<sup>3(b+c+d) and prove infinitude for k=3k=3 and $10$ other k≠1k\ne 1. We compile $30$ starting solutions. In the spirit of Jacobi and Madden's original paper, everything here is simple algebra except one theorem of Mazur.
