    I doubt that an arbiter could declare that someone's work is not their own, nor assign them to another. One would have to agree to give up rights. And again, a paper excluding all the work of another is not the same paper.

  • Why would you expect an arbiter to do any of that? I would expect that an arbiter would give a determination of authorship based on standard rules/conventions for authorship, taking account all relevant factors.
