Abstract
We consider the quantum inverse scattering method with a new R-matrix depending on two parameters q and t. We find that the underlying algebraic structure is the two-parameter deformed algebra SU q,t(2) enlarged by introducing an element belonging to the center. The corresponding Hamiltonian describes the spin-1/2 XXZ model with twisted periodic boundary conditions.
