In the given case, the fix is easy (replace \@institution by \@author in line 348 of paper.cls). This is very obviously a copy and paste error. Jürgen

This is a bug in the LaTeX class file. Nothing we can do on the LyX side, only
the maintainer of the paper class can fix this. However, the class has not
been updated since 1996.
As a workaround, you can put the following code in your LaTeX preamble:
\if@titlepage
\renewcommand\maketitle{\begin{titlepage}%
\let\footnotesize\small
\let\footnoterule\relax
\let\real@thanks\thanks
\DeclareRobustCommand\thanks{\real@thanks}
\let \footnote \thanks
\null\vfil
\vskip 60\p@
\if@center \begin{center} \else \begin{raggedright} \fi
{\t@font \if@upper \uppercase\expandafter{\@title} \else
\@title \fi \par}%
\vskip 3em%
{\ifx\@subtitle\@empty\else
\vskip.5em \st@font \@subtitle \par \fi}
\vskip 1.5em
{\a@font \lineskip .75em
\if@center\begin{tabular}[t]{c}\else\begin{tabular}[t]{@{}l@{}}\fi
\@author \end{tabular} \par }
{\ifx\@institution\@empty\else\vskip.5em
\in@font\bf \lineskip .75em
\if@center\begin{tabular}[t]{c}\else\begin{tabular}[t]{@{}l@{}}\fi
\@institution \end{tabular} \par\fi}
\vskip 1.5em%
{\large \@date \par}% % Set date in \large size.
\if@center \end{center} \else \end{raggedright} \fi
\vfil\null
\@thanks
\end{titlepage}%
\setcounter{footnote}{0}%
\let\thanks\relax\let\maketitle\relax
\gdef\@thanks{}\gdef\@author{}\gdef\@title{}\gdef\@institution{}
\gdef\@subtitle{}}

Bug in "article (paper)" document class
Dear LyX developers, I've happened across a bug in LyX 2.0.0 on Ubuntu 11.04. If the "article (paper)" document class is used with the "titlepage" class option, there's an interaction between the "author" and "institution" environments. "author" by itself will not be displayed in the document (PDF); "institution" (by itself or in combination with "author") will produce the institution twice - first in the style of "author" (replacing the author), then in the style of "institution". I've attached a minimal LyX file that produces this behaviour and the resulting PDF. I hope you can fix this easily.
