We study the electronic and magnetic structures of multiferroicby first-principles calculations, based on the experimentally determined modulated crystal structure. We confirm the presence of aorbital modulation of the Mn2) sites, previously inferred from the Jahn-Teller crystal distortions. Our results indicate that in the multiferroic phase the magnetic structure of the Mn3) sites is anharmonically modulated via orbitally mediated coupling with the structural modulation, and that the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya and exchange striction mechanisms contribute equally to the polarization.
