Definition

Let be topological spaces and be continuous maps. Let be the double mapping cylinder of and . Let denote the inclusions of and in . Then we have the following long exact sequence of homology:

where the maps are:

and:

And the third map is the usual connecting homomorphism from Mayer-Vietoris.

We can replace homology with reduced homology above.
