Abstract
In this paper we study the statistical properties of the allowed frequencies for electromagnetic waves propagating in two-dimensional photonic crystals with quasi-integrable geometry. We compute the level spacing, group velocity, and curvature distributions (P(s), P(v), and P(c), respectively) and compare them with the corresponding random matrix theory predictions. Due to the quasi-integrability of the crystal we observe signatures of intermediate statistics in P(s) and P(c) for high refractive index contrasts.
