Authors cannot edit published posts. Once they publish, their work leaves their hands. If you want Authors to be able to edit published posts, promote them to Editors. Anyone interested in the workflow should take a look at the current mapping of capabilities to roles and come back with suggestions. The mappings are in upgrade-schema.php (scroll to populate_roles() at the end).
