Comment (by sebastienserre):

 OK, I understood and I think your request in plugin territory

 These URLs came from WordPress when it was only a Blog platform. Nowaday
 we make lots of kind of website and this URL allways exists.

 If you want to disable, I suggest to redirect visitosrs with this kinfd of
 code:

 {{{
 function author_page_redirect() {
     if ( is_author() ) {
         wp_redirect( home_url() );
     }
 }
 add_action( 'template_redirect', 'author_page_redirect' );
 }}}
