We provide a non-recursive, combinatorial classification of multiplicity-free skew Schur polynomials. These polynomials are GL n , and SL n , characters of the skew Schur modules. Our result extends work of H. Thomas–A. Yong, and C. Gutschwager, in which they classify the multiplicity-free skew Schur functions.
