Abstract: In this paper we detect new restrictions on the Maslov class of displaceable Lagrangian submanifolds of symplectic manifolds which are symplectically aspherical. These restrictions are established using action selectors for Hamiltonian flows. In particular, we construct and utilize a new action selector for the flows of a special class of Hamiltonian functions which arises naturally in the study of Hamiltonian paths which minimize the Hofer length functional.
