List of authors, titles or author-title
Is it possible to get a list which contents only the names of all AUTHORS?
The same of the names of all TITLES
The same of a AUTHOR with the TITLES he wrote
Is a plugin available or something else
Sorry for my ENGLISH

You can create lists of your library with the "Create a catalog of the books in your calibre library" selection located under the "Convert books" option.

Select the file format in the first tab, then in the second select what you want in the catalog.

Also review the Command line Interface section in the online manual.

Before the Catalog was added, I used to use
calibredb -list

IMO - the command calibredb list remains the best way to get a simple list you can 'work' on.

Catalog is OK if you want something pretty to look at.

@koosr46 : No - and unless someone who wants one, such as yourself, writes such a thing I doubt that there will ever be.

How To Open Command Prompt in Windows 7 [Easy, 1 Min]

If you type the following commands at the command prompt you'll have a list of authors and a list of titles in your documents folder

Code:
calibredb list --fields authors > %USERPROFILE%\documents\authorlist.txt
calibredb list --fields title > %USERPROFILE%\documents\titlelist.txt
Better yet, if you type them into notepad and save as something like list_auths+titles.bat, then you can run (double click) that file whenever you're minded.
