Speaking as an academic and professor, I say you are right. "authored by" implies sole authorship and denies others the credit they are due. Use co-author, or "John Doe, et al" for specific papers. Or if you are talking about a mix and John Doe is the sole author of at least one, then "authored or co-authored by" is appropriate.
