How to create indexes of different types is written at [1].
But I thing you need something else. You have to create index on the
specified column(s). Type of data will be recognized by a column type.
Your primary goal is to avoid sequence scan of big tables. It is
important to read explain[2] and find _tables_ and _columns_ (or
_expressions_) where they appears in the "seq scan/filter" blocks to
decide whether it worth to create an index or not.
You can create index on expression[3] where column(s) of the table or
constants are involved, but keep in mind it is impossible to create an
index using columns of different tables or using non-constants (e.g.
"now()").
Note that your two last posts doesn't have information what columns you need.
