Abstract

Theoretical and computational results are presented clarifying the role of long-ranged strain interactions in determining the charge and orbital ordering in colossal magnetoresistance manganites. The strain energy contribution is found to be of order 20--30 meV/Mn and in particular stabilizes the anomalous ``zigzag chain'' order observed in many half-doped manganites.
