Abstract: We provide an integral formula for the Maslov index of a pair $(E,F)$ over a surface $Sigma$, where $EightarrowSigma$ is a complex vector bundle and $Fsubset{E}_{|partialSigma}$ is a totally real subbundle. As in Chern-Weil theory, this formula is written in terms of the curvature of $E$ plus a boundary contribution. When $(E,F)$ is obtained via an immersion of $(Sigma,partialSigma)$ into a pair $(M,L)$ where $M$ is K"ahler and $L$ is totally real, the formula allows us to control the Maslov index in terms of the geometry of $(M,L)$. We exhibit natural conditions on $(M,L)$ which lead to bounds and monotonicity results.
