  The correlation-driven metal-insulator (Mott) transition at a solid surface
is studied within the Hubbard model for a semi-infinite lattice by means of the
dynamical mean-field theory. The transition takes place at a unique critical
strength of the interaction. Depending on the surface geometry, the interaction
strength and the wave vector, we find one-electron excitations in the coherent
part of the surface-projected metallic spectrum which are confined to two
dimensions.
