40. Effect of electron transfer interaction may affect the result based on the simple localized-orbital picture, in particular, in the two-dimensional case where the energy gain due to the anisotropic hopping becomes strongly orbital dependent. Therefore, the obtained results might include some error at a quantitative level in a strict sense. However, in view of the excellent agreement of the obtained results with the result of Refs., the error would not be significant.

42. The average bond length d̄ for Mn3.5+ is estimated from the fitting of valence-distance (Mn-O bond length) curves calculated by the bond valence sum of Mn3+ and Mn4+.

44. The calculated bond valence sum for oxygen shows a value of -2±0.1 for all materials, indicating that doped number is well included in the calculated nominal valence of Mn ions. However, it should be noted that doped holes have strong O2p character in reality.

48. Minimal disorder effect is also manifested by the absence of enhancement of the atomic displacement factors [see tables in the Appendix 0 and EPAPS (Ref.)], ensuring the validity of using bond valence sum analysis.

50. Averaged value of V is 3.61 for Pr0.5 Ca0.5 MnO3, and is larger than the nominal value of 3.5. Similar tendency is also found for the single-layer and the double-layer compounds. This would be due to the compressed (stretched) nature of Mn-O (rare-earth/alkaline-earth-O) bond and the resultant charge transfer from Mn site to the rare-earth/alkaline-earth site.
