There is an OOTB result sources called Documents, you can use that to limit the results to documents.

For lists, create a result source with query like this: {searchTerms}contentclass:STS_List

For list items, create a result source with query like this: {searchTerms}contentclass:STS_ListItem

Check this article: http://techmikael.blogspot.in/2013/04/limiting-search-results-in-sharepoint.html

To filter by author and date, use the Refinement Panel web part. Add the two managed properties to the Refinement Panel web part.
