DESCRIPTION:Using ambient space we develop a fully gauge and o(d\,2) covar
 iant approach to boundary values of AdS(d+1) gauge fields. It is applied t
 o the study of (partially) massless fields in the bulk and (higher-order) 
 conformal scalars\, i.e. singletons. We prove the appropriate generalizati
 on of the Flato-Fronsdal theorem on the decomposition of the tensor produc
 t of two singletons\, which is in agreement with the known structure of sy
 mmetries for the higher-order wave operator. All these facts support the f
 ollowing generalization of the higher-spin holographic duality: the O(N) m
 odel at an isotropic Lifshitz point should be dual to the theory of partia
 lly massless symmetric tensor fields described by the Vasiliev equations b
 ased on the higher-order singleton symmetry algebra.
