Abstract

We prove that the Arcsine law as the time-averaged distribution for classical harmonic oscillators emerges from the distributions for quantum harmonic oscillators in terms of noncommutative algebraic probability. This is nothing but a simple and rigorous realization of "Quantum-Classical Correspondence" for harmonic oscillators.
