Abstract: Let $H$ be a transfer Krull monoid over a finite ablian group $G$ (for example, rings of integers, holomorphy rings in algebraic function fields, and regular congruence monoids in these domains). Then each nonunit $ainH$ can be written as a product of irreducible elements, say $a=u_{1}ldots{u}_k$, and the number of factors $k$ is called the length of the factorization. The set $mathsfL(a)$ of all possible factorization lengths is the set of lengths of $a$. It is classical that the system $mathcalL(H)=mathsfL(a)midainH$ of all sets of lengths depends only on the group $G$, and a standing conjecture states that conversely the system $mathcalL(H)$ is characteristic for the group $G$. Let $H^{\prime }$ be a further transfer Krull monoid over a finite ablian group $G^{\prime }$ and suppose that $mathcalL(H)=mathcalL(H^{\prime })$. We prove that, if $Gcong{C}_n^r$ with $rlen-3$ or ($rgen-1ge2$ and $n$ is a prime power), then $G$ and $G^{\prime }$ are isomorphic.
