Abstract

We prove an integrality result for the value at $s=1$ of the adjoint $L$-function associated to a cohomological cuspidal automorphic representation on ${\rm GL}(n)$ over any number field. We then show that primes (outside an exceptional set) dividing this special value give rise to congruences between automorphic forms. We also prove a non-vanishing property at infinity for the relevant Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions on ${\rm GL}(n)\times{\rm GL}(n)$.
