commands ls and ls -C seem to produce the same results - display by columns.
Is there any difference?

Referring to info coreutils 'ls invocation':
-C'--format=vertical'
List files in columns, sorted vertically. This is the default for
ls if standard output is a terminal. It is always the default for the dir program. GNU ls uses variable width columns to display as many files as possible in the fewest lines.
TL;DR: no, no difference - that's default.
