    "abstract": "We present a numerical investigation of the ray dynamics in a paraxial\noptical cavity when a ray splitting mechanism is present. The cavity is a\nconventional two-mirror stable resonator and the ray splitting is achieved by\ninserting an optical beam splitter perpendicular to the cavity axis. We show\nthat depending on the position of the beam splitter the optical resonator can\nbecome unstable and the ray dynamics displays a positive Lyapunov exponent.",
