Given the function $f(x)=\lg (a^{x}-b^{x})$, where $a > 1 > b > 0$
(1) Find the domain of $f(x)$;
(2) Determine whether there exist two distinct points on the graph of $f(x)$ such that the line passing through these points is parallel to the $x$-axis;
(3) Determine the conditions on $a$ and $b$ such that $f(x)$ is always positive on the interval $(1,+\infty)$.
