My question may need some clarification. Especially the third example,
which should look something like this:

\relative c''{
<<{<g e>2. r4}\\{<c, a>4 a8 c <cis b~> <d b> <e cis> <f c g>}>>
}
The tie starting at the b on the third beat in the second voice looks
a little awkward. It may be theoretically correct, but it looks
artificial to me since the only movement at that point is c# to d.
What I basically want to know is when it is OK to introduce a new
voice to get rid of these ties.
It’s OK whenever it serves legibility or is desired by the composer.
You’re completely free to add another voice (that would be \voiceTwo for
the crotchet b and \voiceThree for the beamed quavers group), if you
find it sensible, or the performer will have less trouble reading the music.
