The effects of H on the interaction between Ga vacancies VGa and N in GaAs12xNx dilute alloys are studied through first-principles total-energy calculations. We find that N binds to Ga vacancies and that in the presence of H this binding is enhanced. The formation energy of VGa bonded to N and H~resulting in a N-HVGa complex! can be more than 2 eV lower than that of the isolated Ga vacancy VGa in GaAs. Our finding that the concentration of VGa increases with N and even more in the presence of H allows us to interpret several recent experiments.
