Wormholes and energy conditions
In general relativity (GR)
Rαβ uαuβ < 0 ⇒ Tαβu
αuβ < 0
⇒ Violation of null energy condition.⇒ Violation of other (weak, strong, etc.) energy conditions.
But, in scalar-tensor gravity

In such theoryRαβ u

⇒ We may have wormholes with matter satisfying energy conditions.

ω = constant ⇒ Brans-Dicke gravity. We consider
ω(Φ) = − 3Φ
2(1 + Φ)
Scalar-tensor gravity with the above form of ω(Φ) also arises as a effectiveon-brane gravity (S. Kanno and J. Soda, PRD 66, 083506 (2002), T. Shiromizu, K.Koyama, PRD 67, 084022 (2003)) in the context of the two-brane RandallSundrum model. Φ measures inter-brane distance.
R = κTM ⇒ trace-less matter implies R = 0 and vice-versa.

Depending on the parameter values, the metric represents black hole, wormholeor naked singularity.

R=0 wormholes and the energy conditions
The energy conditions are satisfied if
ρ ≥ 0, ρ+ τ ≥ 0, ρ+ p ≥ 0, ρ+ τ + 2p = 2ρ ≥ 0
In the limit x → 0 (i.e. r → ∞), we have
ρ = Q2x4 +O(x5), ρ+ τ = Px3 +O(x4), ρ+ p = −1
2Px3 +O(x4)
where

Unlike in GR, the R = 0 wormholes satisfy the energy conditions for wide rangesof parameters.
The mass term m is necessary to satisfy the energy conditions by the R = 0wormholes.
If the energy conditions are satisfied, the deflection of light is always positive. But,it may be either positive or negative, if the energy conditions are violated.
