contents The quantum mechanically admissible definitions of the factor $\exp\big[(i/\hbar)S(γ)\big]$ in the Feynman integral are put in bijection with the prequantisations of Kostant and Souriau. The different allowed expressions of this factor -- the inequivalent prequantisations -- are classified. The theory is illustrated by the Aharonov-Bohm experiment and by identical particles.
