We find that, under the resonant condition, it exhibits a mirror symmetry with respect to the energy $E=M$ where $M$ the total number of excitations. Thus, for any eigenstate $|\\psi_M^{+}\\rangle$ with energy $E=M+{\\cal E}$ there exists a related eigenstate $|\\psi_M^{-}\\rangle$ with energy $E=M-{\\cal E}$ via the unitary parity operator in the number of photons . This is independent of the dipolar coupling between the levels.
