We need \(z>x^2+y^2\). At \((0,0,1)\): \(1>0\), yes. In the others, \(2=2\), \(1=1\) and \(3<4\): none satisfies the strict inequality. The domain is the region above the paraboloid.
A function of several variables \(f\) assigns to each point \(\mathbf x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)\) of a set \(D\subseteq\mathbb R^n\), its domain, a single real number.
\[f:D\subseteq\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R\]
