I'm trying to generate an apk to publish on Play Store with Unity.
I've had to regenerate the keystore, cause I've lost the previously, so I've had to do it with Android Studio to sent the CEM to Google Support.
The problem is that Android Studio makes .jks and Unity asks me a .keystore file. How can I convert it to build an apk file to publish on Google Developer Console?
Thank you!

You should be good to go to sign your app with the .jks file.
If you lost your old keystore I think your only solution will be to just create a new one and publish your app as another independent app as the Google Docs say

I made an app using Android Studio, but when I upload it to Google Play, it asks me for an aab file.
In Android Studio, select “Build => Generate Signed Bundle / APK” and follow the dialog.
The process will leave you with a built and signed release bundle that’s ready for upload to the Play Store.
for more detailed steps go here.
In Android Stuido go to Build -> Generate signed bundle/APK and select Android application bundle.
after that, enter all your information and paths and your aab file will be generated.

I do not want Android Studio to use the (automatically created) debug.keystore, instead I want to use my release keystore. The reason for this is that Push Notifications do not work when the APK is signed with the debug key.
I have googled, but I cannot find a way.
The change you want is in your build.gradle, not in Android studio itself, per-se. You can configure the signing keystore using Android Studio, but under the hood your build.gradle will be edited by the IDE. The documentation is available here.
The section on securing your key describes how to add this into your build.gradle in a secure/safe way, assuming you don't want your signing details checked into version control.
After a lay off, I migrated my Android development from Eclipse under Windows to a new machine with Android Studio running under Ubuntu.
Because I wished to port an existing project using Google Maps v1 (which no longer issues new API keys) I copied the release and debug keystores to the new machine.
Under Eclipse there was no need to know the location of the debug keystore which was created automatically and debug loads signed with it.
Under Android Studio, does the same principle apply? If there is a system created debug keystore, where is it, or do I have to define one explicitly?
As described here in the documentation: http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html
You can find the debug keystore in $HOME/.android/debug.keystore
Yes, a debug.keystore file is created for you by Android Studio. It is in your user home directory under .android/debug.keystore (i.e., on Linux/Mac at ~/.android/debug.keystore
I am using android studio 1.4 and I made a keystore but I accidently deleted that folder. Now how can I make a new keystore? I use android studio just for the purpose of learning as of now. I have no recent plans to publish on google play. I am trying to create new keystore but I am not able to create a new keystore. Please help me out with this problem.
I want to know the steps to import and export the app apk to perform some changes in the existing app and vice versa.. Also where to find the apk in android studio environment..
In Android Studio. Go to Build in the toolbar. Click on Generate Signed APK and then go through the steps such as creating a keystone and the like. It's very easy and the IDE does most of the work. When creating the keystone choose a certain scale that will ensure the keystore is in place and secure for the next several decades. You will be able to use it for that many years.
In Eclipse. Single click on the project you would like to generate the signed APL for and then from the File tab in the toolbar, click on Export. The remaining steps are mostly the same as above.
Type in your information, such as location, country code, and you will finally be presented with a signed APK. Good-Luck and welcome to StackOverflow!
