How can I link to the author’s page

I depends on whether you want the URL to the authors posts:

'<a href="'.get_author_posts_url( $user->ID ).'">user posts url</a>'

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_author_posts_url

Or the url to edit the user:

'<a href="'.get_edit_user_link( $user->ID ).'">edit user url</a>'

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_edit_user_link
