I can not find a solution on this matter in PostgreSQL.
I hope anybody can help me on this subject. The problem is not to find a substitute for the Oracle synonyms, but a way to write queries which, reliably, can be used no matter the schema which owns the tables.

It takes the first one.
There is no explicit relationship between users and schemas, however
many installations have the search_path default to "$user, public"
which is magically substituted on connection. You are ofcourse free to
alter search_path whenever you want. Any table can always be referred
to by its full name...
Hope this helps,
