Hibernate can not find PostgreSQL sequence

I am working on a Spring Boot Project. I have the following entity :

@Entity
@Table(name = "authors")
public class Author {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "author_seq")
    @SequenceGenerator(name = "author_seq", 
        sequenceName = "authors_authorid_seq", schema = "public")
    private int authorid;
    private String name;
    private String surname;
    
    public Author() {
    }

    public int getAuthorid() {
        return authorid;
    }

    public void setAuthorid(int authorid) {
        this.authorid = authorid;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getSurname() {
        return surname;
    }

    public void setSurname(String surname) {
        this.surname = surname;
    }
    
}

I have the following sequences in database :
authors_authorid_seq bookborrow_id_seq books_bookid_seq users_userid_seq

am getting the following error :

org.hibernate.tool.schema.spi.SchemaManagementException: Schema-validation: missing sequence [public.authors_authorid_seq]

Can you please help me about what I am doing wrong? My Hibernate version is 5.4.25. Thanks
