We prove integrality of the ratio f, f / g, g (outside an explicit finite set of primes), where g is an arithmetically normalized holomorphic newform on a Shimura curve, f is a normalized Hecke eigenform on GL(2) with the same Hecke eigenvalues as g and , denotes the Petersson inner product.The primes dividing this ratio are shown to be closely related to certain level-lowering congruences satisfied by f and to the central values of a family of Rankin-Selberg L-functions.Finally we give two applications, the first to proving the integrality of a certain triple product L-value and the second to the computation of the Faltings height of Jacobians of Shimura curves.
