Abstract：BuildingBlock Hypothesis is an important theoretical foundation of genetic algorithms. Although there are many practical evidences to support it, it has not been proven. This paper proposes the definition of important schema, discusses the properties of important schema, proves a special example of BuildingBlock Hypothesis, presents the condition of whether there is only one best solution and gets the characteristic of the best schemata of some special function species.
