Local systems and vanishing Maslov class

Abstract

It is well known that closed exact Lagrangians in cotangent bundles of closed manifolds have vanishing Maslov class and are homotopy equivalent to the zero section. In this paper we greatly simplify the proof of vanishing Maslov class and generalize the proof to a slightly larger family of Weinstein domains.
