See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-createindex.html

The syntax for CREATE INDEX is 

CREATE INDEX ON table_name [ USING method ] ( column_name ... )

You use USING to specify the method (e.g. btree or gin), not the table
and/or columns. The columns (or expressions come in parentheses after
that.

So if you wanted an index on column a of table t1 you would simply
write:

CREATE INDEX ON t1 (a);

Or if you have a function xxx and you want a function based index on
xxx(a) of that table:

CREATE INDEX ON t1 (xxx(a));

(You can specify the name of the index, but why would you?)

What? Why are you doing these things?
