Separate the two authors by \and (in ERT) and insert each acknowledgment as a footnote after the respective author. I.e., T. Rothe \and C. O. Author LyX will output the footnotes as \thanks's in this context. HTH, Jürgen
Re: multiple \thanks in author field
A suggestion:
You can try putting everything, including the "\author" command, inside
the ERT TeX-code box, and not use built it "\author" command of the LyX.

My coauthor gave me this snippet, which compiles in TeXShop 2.36 but not in Lyx

\author{T. Rothe\thanks{Supported by grant 12345678.} \hskip 5pt and C. O.
Author \thanks{Supported by grant 12345678.} \\[5mm]

I can select "author" as paragraph style from the dropdown menu, type both
authors, and put a single footnote at the end for the second \thanks. But I
cannot make two footnotes. Either I get cryptic error messages, or the grant
gets un-footnoted when pasting the snippet as literal ERT.
Please excuse my ignorance, Lyx has successfully saved me from Latex since 2000.

Things are getting even more weird - the document will compile as article, but not as AMS article. Steps to reproduce: 1) Open a new document 2) Type a title, formatted as such, end the paragraph (else it won't compile) 3) Type an author, and format it as such in the dropdown menu 4) Immediately, start typing a Footnote with the grant, then end the paragraph 5) Type some standard-format text (else it won't compile). 6) Compile, you get a PDF 7) Change the document to "article (AMS)" 8) Compile, you get an error message about \thanks in \author For completeness, this is the test file: #LyX 1.6.7 created this file.

This snippet seems really awkward. For one thing, it is really trying
to work around LaTeX settings. I bet this was from someone used to
plain TeX, where you fussed with how many mm to space things, rather
than let the overall document class take care of it.
I was looking at how I did this, and it was in a single "thanks"
environment, saying: "The first author was partially supported by blah.
The second author was partially supported by the blah."
It worked for me.
