Description

Everything that is normally mentioned before the table of contents. Only title and one author is a must, the rest if you wish, but the given order is (unfortunately) mandatory. The first mentioned author will also be printed after the copyright.

<author> has to be simple, i.e. it mustn't contain any additional information such as institute or email address. If it does, that is ignored. (In contrast to in articles.)
