This volume contains notes which accompanied the lectures at the nineteenth annual Arizona Winter School, held March 12–16, 2016, at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The Arizona Winter School is an intensive five-day meeting, each year organized around a different central topic in arithmetic geometry, featuring several courses by leading and emerging experts (“an annual pilgrimage,” in the words of one participant). The Winter School is the main activity of the Southwest Center for Arithmetic Geometry, which was founded in 1997 by a group of seven mathematicians working in the southwest United States, and which has been supported since that time by the National Science Foundation; in recent years it has been organized in partnership with the Clay Mathematics Institute. The special character of the Arizona Winter School comes from its format. Each speaker proposes a project, and a month before the Winter School begins, the speaker is assigned a group of graduate students who work on the project. The speakers also provide lecture notes and a bibliography. During the actual school the speaker and and his or her group of students work every evening on the assigned project. On the last day of the workshop, the students from each group present their work to the whole school. The result is a particularly intense and focused five days of mathematical activity (for the students and speakers alike). The topic of the Winter School in 2016 was Analytic Methods in Arithmetic Geometry, and the speakers were Alina Carmen Cojocaru, Harald Andrés Helfgott, Philippe Michel, and Andrew Sutherland. Étienne Fouvry, Emmanuel Kowalski, and Will Sawin join Michel as co-authors. We thank the authors for their hard work before, during, and after the Winter School. The anonymous reviewers made numerous valuable comments, and we thank them for their careful reading of this manuscript. We also thank the IAS School of Mathematics and Simons Foundation (# 524015) for their support of Alina Bucur, and NSF (grant DMS-1555048) for their support of David Zureick-Brown while editing this volume. Finally, we are indebted to the other members (past and present) of the Southwest Center; it is thanks to their efforts that the Winter School exists in its present form.
