We investigate the phase diagrams of RMn$_2$O$_5$ via a first-principles effective-Hamiltonian method. We are able to reproduce the most important features of the complicated magnetic and ferroelectric phase transitions. The calculated polarization as a function of temperature agrees very well with experiments. The dielectric-constant step at the commensurate-to -incommensurate magnetic phase transition is well reproduced. The microscopic mechanisms for the phase transitions are discussed.
