Abstract

Let f be a Maass form for SL $$(3, {mathbb{Z}})$$ which is fixed and u j be an orthonormal basis of even Maass forms for SL $$(2, {mathbb{Z}})$$ , we prove an asymptotic formula for the average of the product of the Rankin-Selberg L-function of f and u j and the L-function of u j at the central value 1/2. This implies simultaneous nonvanishing results of these L-functions at 1/2.
