This paper may be considered as a supplement to the previous paper by the first two authors [Nonlinear Anal., Theory Methods Appl., Ser. A, Theory Methods 92, 47--59 (2013; Zbl 1329.46033)], where variable exponent Sobolev spaces on Riemann manifolds have already been studied. In the present manuscript, variable exponent spaces of Lebesgue, Sobolev and Hölder type are investigated on complete non-compact Riemann manifolds. Under suitable assumptions on the geometry of the manifold \(M\) and the \(\log\)-Hölder continuity of the (variable) exponent \(p(\cdot)\), Sobolev embeddings into variable Lebesgue spaces (in the case \(\mathrm{ess }\mathrm{supp}(x)<n\)) and into variable order Hölder spaces (when \(\mathrm{ess }\inf p(x)>n\)) are obtained. Moreover, compact embeddings for \(H\)-invariant Sobolev subspaces (where e.g. \(H\) stands for a compact Lie subgroup of the group of isometries on \(M\)) are also derived. The authors also apply their results to study the existence of weak solutions to non-homogeneous elliptic PDEs involving the \(p(x)\)-Laplacian.
