How to delete virtual partition and hard drive volumes in Mac OS X?

Greetings! I apologize if this issue (or something similar) has already been discussed. I would be grateful for links to already solved problems.
The bottom line is that I decided to install win 10 via boot camp. My Mac has one hard drive - 3TB.
All the standard pre-installation stray has been completed, the procedure for partitioning the disk has come. For win, I allocated about 400 meters, you will leave 2.6TB for the poppy. And then began dancing with a tambourine. Boot Camp crashed, had to restart Mac. After the reboot came the magic of the volumes.
It so happened that my HDD eventually became 2.6, on the poppy, as planned, but 400 meters flew into another space, roughly speaking, they are in limbo somewhere in the depths of the poppy. But this is not the end, it so happened that I duplicated the HDD for 2.6. Yes, I have two HDDs of 2.6 each (let's joke with friends about space cloning).
Finally formatted everything. But sections/Volumes remained. In general, I screwed up there strongly and terribly.
Here is a screenshot of the actual sections, which were up to a heap and half of the curves.

How to return to original state? 1 HDD, with 1 partition for Mac axis.
I had such a problem for a very long time (of a similar nature, I don’t remember exactly), I then solved it with a guide on the Internet. The essence of the solution there was to dig the terminal in recovery mode and delete / work with volumes through the console. Unfortunately, I can't find this guide right now. That's why I'm writing here.

the disk is in your corestorage, it must be deleted.
first try rolling back - awesometoast.com/yosemite-core-storage-and-partiti...
if that doesn't work, delete partitions - apple.stackexchange.com/questions/136590/how-can-i...

Hello!
And you won’t help me remove the trash from this pile of disks, or at worst, remove everything and prepare the disk for installing the OS.
I have access to the disk utility and the terminal via a USB flash drive
