We have measured Hall effect, magnetotransport and magnetostriction on the field induced phases of single crystalline UPt2Si2 in magnetic fields up to 60 T at temperatures down to 50 mK. For the magnetic field applied along the c axis we observe strong changes in the Hall effect at the phase boundaries. From a comparison to band structure calculations utilizing the concept of a dual nature of the uranium 5f electrons, we find evidence for field induced topological changes of the Fermi surface due to at least one Lifshitz transition. Furthermore, we find a unique history dependence of the magnetotransport and magnetostriction data, indicating that the Lifshitz type transition is of a discontinuous nature, as predicted for interacting electron systems.
