AlenkaF opened a new issue, #37200:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/37200

   ### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, 
version, and platform.
   
   When converting an empty table with a known schema to a record batch, the 
information about the schema is lost and the result is an empty list:
   
   ```python
   >>> my_schema = pa.schema([pa.field('col1', pa.int64())])
   >>> df = pa.table([[]], schema=my_schema)
   >>> df
   pyarrow.Table
   col1: int64
   ----
   col1: [[]]
   >>> df.to_batches()
   []
   ```
   
   but in comparison, if we are creating an empty batch with a known schema we 
get the following:
   ```python
   >>> batch = pa.record_batch([[]], schema=my_schema)
   >>> batch
   pyarrow.RecordBatch
   col1: int64
   ----
   col1: []
   ```
   
   and I think this should be same for the case of converting an empty table 
with known schema to a record batch.
   
   ### Component(s)
   
   Python
