Energy conditions in $f(R,L_{m})$ gravity
  In order to constrain $f(R,L_{m})$ gravity from theoretical aspects, its energy conditions are derived in this paper. These energy conditions given by us are quite general and can be degenerated to the well-known energy conditions in General Relativity and $f(R)$ theories of gravity with arbitrary coupling, non-minimal coupling and non-coupling between matter and geometry, respectively, as special cases. To exemplify how to use these energy conditions to restrict $f(R,L_{m})$ gravity, we consider a special model in the FRW cosmology and give some corresponding results by using astronomical observations.
