I believe CREATE TABLE is the usual mechanism to do this sort of thing.

Do you mean session-private, but persistent across transactions?
Configuration parameters can be abused for this purpose.

you can also use global structure in plpython for example:

Same thing with plperl.
BTW, if you want something that's global but also transactional then you'll want to use a temp table.
