Abstract: We study phase transitions for the topological pressure of geometric potentials of transitive sets. The sets considered are partially hyperbolic having a step skew product dynamics over a horseshoe with one-dimensional fibers corresponding to the central direction. The sets are genuinely non-hyperbolic containing intermingled horseshoes of different hyperbolic behavior (contracting and expanding center). We prove that for every $kge1$ there is a diffeomorphism $F$ with a transitive set $Lambda$ as above such that the pressure map $P(t)=P(t,varphi)$ of the potential $varphi=-log,lVertdF{|}_{E^c}Vert$ ($E^c$ the central direction) defined on $Lambda$ has $k$ rich phase transitions. This means that there are parameters $t_{e}ll$, $ell=1,\mathrm{...},k$, where $P(t)$ is not differentiable and this lack of differentiability is due to the coexistence of two equilibrium states of $t_{e}ll,varphi$ with positive entropy and different Birkhoff averages. Each phase transition is associated to a gap in the central Lyapunov spectrum of $F$ on $Lambda$.
