      In a joint paper with \textit{N. Dahmene} and \textit{N. Selmi} [Un produit-* sur une variété symplectique quantifiable, to appear in Trav. Math. (Luxembourg)], the author constructed a star product on a quantizable symplectic manifold \((M,\omega)\) with a real polarization \({\mathcal F}\), with its local formula. In this paper, first this local formula is considered on cotangent bundles and then shown to be global. Then it is shown that on the cotangent bundle of a homogeneous space \(G/H\), this product is characterized by \[ \begin{aligned} \widetilde X*\widetilde Y &=\widetilde X\cdot\widetilde Y+ {\hbar\over 2i} [\widetilde{X,Y}]+ {\hbar^2\over 4}\pi^*(\lambda(X) \lambda(Y)- X^*(\lambda(Y))- Y^*(\lambda(X))),\\ \widetilde X(\alpha) &= \alpha(X^*(q(\alpha))),\quad \lambda(X)(\dot x)= \text{tr}(\text{ad}(X^*)(\dot x).\end{aligned} \] Here \(X,Y\in{\mathfrak g}\) and \(\alpha\in T^*(G/H)\). By this formula, \(\widetilde X*\widetilde Y-\widetilde Y*\widetilde X\) is equal to \(2\hbar[\widetilde{X,Y}]\). Hence the \(*\) product is covariant. The outline of the paper is as follows: In Sect. 2, first geometric quantization is reviewed. Schrödinger quantization is the quantization taking the quantum operator to be \[ Q(f)\phi= (\pi^* f_0)\phi+ {\hbar\over i} L_X\phi,\quad f= \pi^* f_0+\widetilde X. \] On the cotangent bundle, \(Q\) is extended to be \[ Q(f)= {1\over (k+1)!} \sum_{\sigma\in S_{k+1}} Q(p_{i_{\sigma(0)}}\circ\cdots\circ Q(p_{i_{\sigma(k)}}),\quad f= a(q) p_{i_1}\cdots p_{i_k}, \] where \(a(q)= p_{i_0}\), and set \[ C_r(f, g)= 2^r Q^{-1}((Q(f)\circ Q(g))_{k+ k'-r}), \] a star product on the cotangent bundle is obtained by \[ f* g= \sum^\infty_{r=0} {\hbar^r\over i} C_r(f, g). \] Then it is shown that this product is global due to the Liouville vector field. Then in Sect. 3, it is shown \[ Q(\widetilde X)= {\hbar\over i} \Biggl(\widetilde X- {i\over 2}\text{tr}(\text{ad}(X))\Biggr), \] on the cotangent bundle of the homogeneous space \(G/H\). The above formula follows from this expression.
