Abstract: We prove explicit rationality-results for Asai- L-functions, LS(s,Pi,mAspm), and Rankin-Selberg L-functions, LS(s,PiimesPi), over arbitrary CM-fields F, relating critical values to explicit powers of (2pii). Besides determining the contribution of archimedean zeta-integrals to our formulas as concrete powers of (2pii), it is one of the advantages of our approach, that it applies to very general non-cuspidal isobaric automorphic representations Pi of mGLn(mathbbAF). As an application, this enables us to establish a certain algebraic version of the Gan--Gross--Prasad conjecture, as refined by N. Harris, for totally definite unitary groups. As another application we obtain a generalization of a result of Harder--Raghuram on quotients of consecutive critical values, proved by them for totally real fields, and achieved here for arbitrary CM-fields F and pairs (Pi,Pi) of relative rank one.
