Currently, if one is on an arxiv paper page, and one clicks on the author link, it searches for the author by last name and first initial. It would be much more useful if the author has an author identifier to list the papers by this author.

I just have a hard time finding someone who has the connection to arXiv and the time to review my stuff at all. I haven't really tried hard enough, either.Neil Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04564859009749481136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-48143035675153842502009-06-26T07:51:43.019-04:002009-06-26T07:51:43.019-04:00There's a way to claim ownership without a pas...There's a way to claim ownership without a password, see here<br /><br />http://arxiv.org/auth/request-ownership.php<br /><br />I think I'll try this...Sabine Hossenfelderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06151209308084588985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-38915731111612608342009-06-26T07:50:10.999-04:002009-06-26T07:50:10.999-04:00Hi Rhys,

I'm not really sure how I'm supposed to do this know since it requires a password and I strongly doubt me or any of my coauthors will be able to locate these passwords anywhere.
