dc.descriptionSpatio-temporal dynamics of excitable media with discrete three-level active centers (ACs) and absorbing boundaries is studied numerically by means of a deterministic three-level model (see S. D. Makovetskiy and D. N. Makovetskii, on-line preprint cond-mat/0410460 ), which is a generalization of Zykov- Mikhailov model (see Sov. Phys. -- Doklady, 1986, Vol.31, No.1, P.51) for the case of two-channel diffusion of excitations. In particular, we revealed some qualitatively new features of coexistence, competition and collapse of rotating spiral waves (RSWs) in three-level excitable media under conditions of strong influence of the second channel of diffusion. Part of these features are caused by unusual mechanism of RSWs evolution when RSW's cores get into the surface layer of an active medium (i.~e. the layer of ACs resided at the absorbing boundary). Instead of well known scenario of RSW collapse, which takes place after collision of RSW's core with absorbing boundary, we observed complicated transformations of the core leading to nonlinear ''reflection'' of the RSW from the boundary or even to birth of several new RSWs in the surface layer. To our knowledge, such nonlinear ''reflections'' of RSWs and resulting die hard vorticity in excitable media with absorbing boundaries were unknown earlier.
