We collected 65 light curves by amateur and professional observers, measured mid-transit times, and analysed their differences from calculated transit timings based on reference ephemeris information, which we update as a result. We have not found any periodicity in the residuals of a linear trend, which we attribute to the accumulation of uncertainties in the reference mid-transit time and the orbital period. We comment on the scenarios describing the formation and migration of this hot-Saturn type exoplanet with a bloated atmosphere yet a small core, although it is orbiting a metal-rich ([Fe/H] = 0.24 dex) host star. Finally, we review the planetary mass-radius, the orbital period-radius, and density, and the stellar metallicity-core mass diagrams, based on the parameters we derive for HAT-P-19 b and those of the other 70 transiting Saturn-mass planets from the NASA Exoplanet Archive.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessmethods: observationaltechniques: photometrictechniques: spectroscopicstars: individual: HAT-P-19Article49644174419010.1093/mnras/staa17582-s2.0-85095446301Q1WOS:000574923200009Q1
