contents In this paper, we study the use of outer metrics, in particular Sobolev-type metrics on the diffeomorphism group in the context of PDE-constrained shape optimization. Leveraging the structure of the diffeomorphism group we analyze the connection between the push-forward of a smooth function defined on the diffeomorphism group and the classical shape derivative as an Eulerian semi-derivative. We consider in particular, two predominant examples on PDE-constrained shape optimization. An electric impedance tomography inspired problem, and the optimization of a two-dimensional bridge. These problems are numerically solved using the Riemannian steepest descent method where the descent directions are taken to be the Riemannian gradients associated to various outer metrics. For comparison reasons, we also solve the problem using other previously proposed Riemannian metrics in particular the Steklov-Poincaré metric.
