(a) Magnetic ordered moment

(for the pattern, see right) calculated by MVMC simulations (red circles). The result at
represents that of the ab initio model for LaFeAsO while the
dependence illustrates the results of the models obtained by uniformly scaling the interaction strengths by

. The MVMC results of the ab initio models are shown by black-framed yellow diamonds. The green and blue shaded regions represent the
-type and stripe-type AF orders, respectively, as is illustrated in the right panel of Fig. 1a. There exist two first-order transitions (black dashed lines), one indicated by the jumps in the ordered moment around
and the other at the transition between the
-type and stripe around
, which signals large charge fluctuations under phase-separation effects. In the present short-ranged-interaction model, the phase separation indeed occurs in the gray shaded regions.
