  We study the star lattice with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and exchange field
and find that there exists the quantum anomalous Hall effect in this system and
there are five energy gaps at Dirac points and quadratic band crossing points.
We calculate the Berry curvature distribution and obtain the Hall conductivity
(Chern number $\nu$) quantized as integers, and find that $\nu=-1,2,1,1,2$,
respectively, when the Fermi level lies in these five gaps. Our model can be
view as a general quantum anomalous Hall system and, in limit cases, can give
what the honeycomb lattice and kagome lattice gave. We also find there exists a
nearly flat band with $\nu=1$ which may provide an opportunity to realize the
fractional quantum anomalous Hall effect. Finally, the chiral edge states on a
zigzag star lattice are given numerically to confirm the topological property
of this system.
