A search is performed for a heavy particle decaying into different-flavor, dilepton pairs ($e\ensuremath{\mu}$, $e\ensuremath{\tau}$ or $\ensuremath{\mu}\ensuremath{\tau}$), using $36.1\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{fb}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{TeV}$ collected in 2015--2016 by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No excesses over the Standard Model predictions are observed. Bayesian lower limits at the 95% credibility level are placed on the mass of a ${Z}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ boson, the mass of a supersymmetric $\ensuremath{\tau}$-sneutrino, and on the threshold mass for quantum black-hole production. For the ${Z}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ and sneutrino models, upper cross-section limits are converted to upper limits on couplings, which are compared with similar limits from low-energy experiments and which are more stringent for the $e\ensuremath{\tau}$ and $\ensuremath{\mu}\ensuremath{\tau}$ modes.
