In this talk notes we expose the possibility to induce the cosmological constant from extra dimensions, in a geometrical framework where our four-dimensional Riemannian space-time is embedded into a five-dimensional Weyl integrable space. In particular following the approach of the induced matter theory, we show that when go down from five to four dimensions, we may recover in the context of the general theory of relativity, the induced energy momentum tensor of the induced matter theory plus a cosmological constant term, that is determined by the presence of the Weyl scalar field on the bulk.
