The spaces mentioned in the title are certain versions of the Lebesgue and the Sobolev spaces with variable order of integrability. The authors establish elementary properties of these spaces and prove some embedding theorems for Sobolev-type spaces. Then they apply the results to the proof of existence of a weak solution of a certain nonlinear boundary value problem.
