The Arches cluster is one of the compact, young, massive star clusters near the center of our galaxy. Since it is located only ~30 pc away in projection from the galactic center (GC), the cluster is an excellent target for studying the effects of star forming environment on, for example, the initial mass function under the extreme condition of GC. To estimate the initial condition of the Arches cluster, we compare our calculation results from the anisotropic Fokker-Planck method with the most recent observational data sets for the surface density and velocity dispersion profiles and the present-day mass function.
