I have a problem with the title page of my paper. The code is below:
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{todonotes}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.2}
\setlength{\topmargin}{0cm}
\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{0cm}
\setlength{\leftmargin}{0cm}
\setlength{\textwidth}{16cm}
\setlength{\textheight}{23cm}
\renewcommand{\hoffset}{1cm}
\renewcommand{\voffset}{1cm}
\begin{document}
\title{{\LARGE \bfseries The title the title the title the title the title the title the title the title the title the title the title \thanks{adc}}}

The two problems are the following:
a) Is it possible to change the setting of the front page only such that it comes in one page? Notice that I would like to change the setting of the front page, but I am keen with the one for the other pages in my paper, in which case I would like to maintain the setlength indicated in my code;
b) As you can see the three authors share one affiliation (University of Another Place). In the footnote I do not like to repeat the address for all the three, but I would like to use the same symbol to connect them to the same address (of course the first author will have two address, the one for the University of No Place and the second which is common to the other two authors).
Does someone have an hint? Thanks in advance.

This is what I manage to do using runartrollet comment and this other answer. I've used
geometry
package andauthblk
.This is for point a), only odd pages with margin zero and first page with custom margins.
This is for point b), one author share address and affiliation with the others.
