Since surface quasi-particle spectra of various perovskites are more strongly correlated than their bulk spectra, the coexistence of a metallic bulk and an insulating surface layer might be feasible. To investigate this possibility the dynamical mean field theory is used to evaluate the quasi-particle spectra in the bulk and at the surface of Ca$_x$La$_{1-x}$VO$_3$ for various Ca concentrations.5 pages, 4 figuresStrongly Correlated ElectronsSurface versus bulk Mott transition in Ca$_x$La$_{1-x}$VO$_3$text
