Our analysis gives clear evidence of a Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble statistics, suggesting the existence of a generalized time-reversal invariance. Furthermore a change from the (generic) GOE distribution to a Poisson distribution occurs when the integrability conditions are met. The chiral Potts model is known to correspond to a (star-triangle) integrability associated with curves of genus higher than zero or one. Therefore, the RMT analysis can also be seen as a detector of ``higher genus integrability''.23 pages and 10 figuresStatistical MechanicsHigh Energy Physics - TheoryMathematical PhysicsRandom Matrix Theory and higher genus integrability: the quantum chiral Potts modeltext
