Abstract: Consider the non-compact billiard in the first quandrant bounded by the positive $x$-semiaxis, the positive $y$-semiaxis and the graph of $f(x)=(x+1{)}^{-alpha}$, $alphain(1,2]$. Although the Schnirelman Theorem holds, the quantum average of the position $x$ is finite on any eigenstate, while classical ergodicity entails that the classical time average of $x$ is unbounded.
