Children abroad / unmarried

Hello,

This is a possible case that may occur in the near future. Let's say I have children with a woman from Indonesia. They live their lives there and do not intend to come to Germany.
My questions:
a) Can I apply for dual citizenship for these children?
b) Is there a way to deduct the child support payments from my taxes in Germany?
c) Marriage does not work for legal reasons (different religious affiliations) in Indonesia. Would it make sense to marry the woman during a brief stay in Germany?
d) How would things look if we were to get married, for example, in Las Vegas?

Best regards
