How to calculate the light propagation in a medium of randomly arranged dielectric spheres? And how to design the symmetry points in the first Brillouin zones?
You can easily create a computational cell consisting of a large number of randomly arranged spheres and compute the transmission of light with Meep, in the same way as you would compute the transmission through any other structure. Of course, the computational costs might become quite large if you want to look at transmission through a very large number of random spheres.
Your question about Brillouin zones makes no sense, because Brillouin zones are properties of periodic structures.
