I have a question about the terminology for special values
of L-functions. Is the following a correct description of
standard usage:
Suppose L(s) is an L-function which satisfies a functional

Nonvanishing of central L-values of quadratic twists?
Let $\pi$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of GL(2) over a number field (if you want, assume it's $\mathbb Q$ and $\pi$ comes from a holomorphic modular form).
In the case $\pi$ has trivial ...

Are the L-functions of a normalized newform and the corresponding cuspidal representation equal?
Let $f \in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ be a normalized newform with Fourier expansion
$$f(z) = \sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n e^{2\pi i z n}$$
and $a_1 = 1$. Then $f$ is an eigenfunction of all Hecke ...

Average bounds on Rankin-Selberg coefficients for modular forms
Let $f$ be a cuspidal Hecke newform of weight $k$ and level $N$, and denote by $a_f(n)$ its $n$-th Fourier coefficient. The newform $f$ is normalized so that $a_f(1) = 1$. As a consequence of Rankin-...

Expression of the root number for Maass forms
Take a holomorphic cusp newform, say $f \in S_k(N)^\mathrm{new}$, for a squarefree level $N$. It is an eigenvalue of the Atkin-Lehner operator, and this feature allows to express its root number as

Functoriality for triple product GL(2) x GL(2) x GL(2)
Let $f$, $g$ and $h$ be three general automorphic forms on $\operatorname{GL}(2)$.
Do we know that $L(s, f\times g\times h)$ comes from an automorphic form on $\operatorname{GL}(8)$?
