How are injections, surjections and bijections described for functions with an ordered pair as an argument?

27 Views Asked by At

When given a function with an ordered pair as argument i.e.

Z × Z → Z given by f(m, n) = m − n − 1

How should injections, surjections and bijections be described? Should there be a domain of tuples ie. (1,1) (1,2) (2,1) (2,2)? Or possibly an extra domain or codomain?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Those aren't functions with multiple arguments. Those are functions taking a single argument in the domain $\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}$. The definitions are exactly as for any other function.
