It is called fifth root
(the word "square" is reserved for "second")
Odd-powered roots usually do not have restrictions.
Is there a 5th root for -32?
Yes, because (-2)^5 = -32
Domain problems, for roots, normally occur when you have even-powered roots (such as the square root or the 4th root) because it is impossible to take the even-powered root of a negative number.
What is the 4th root of -16?
It is not -2, because (-2)^4 = +16
So, the fifth root does not restrict your domain.
Next, you look at the argument itself (the binomial of which you take the fifth root), and it is exactly that, a binomial.
Polynomials do not have any restrictions on their domains.
Therefore, there does not seem to be any restrictions on the domain.
The domain can be written in many different ways:
"All the real numbers"
Domain = ℝ
(ℝ is the symbole that represents "all the real numbers")
Domain = (-∞, +∞)
or (-∞, ∞)
Most people prefer to use the interval notiation without putting the + sign in front of the "plus infinity" sign. I do use it, simply to avoid confusion.
Note that the notation always uses round brackets for infinites, as they are not real numbers (they are never included in the domain).
Domain = { x : x ∈ ℝ }
and so on.

The usual interval notation uses round brackets when the border number is NOT included in the domain, and a square bracket when the number is included.
For example: (-1, 3]
means all the numbers between -1 and 3, including 3 itself, but NOT including -1.
Some books use square brackets only, with the bracket facing in if the number is OK, but facing our if it is not OK.
(-1, 3] becomes ]-1, 3]
