The main result proved in this paper is the following. Suppose X1, X2 are two subspaces of a space X such that X = Int(X1)∪ X2 = X1 ∪ Int(X2). Then the pair (X1, X2) is a ϕ on X. This result settles an open question and includes all known results on ϕ-excisiveness in sheaf cohomology as its special cases. We construct several several examples to illustrate our main theorem and to show that it is, in fact, quite sharp.
