#### Streszczenie

Ben-David and Shelah proved that if $\lambda$ is a singular strong-limit cardinal and $2^\lambda =\lambda ^+$, then $\square ^*_\lambda$ entails the existence of a normal $\lambda$-distributive $\lambda ^+$-Aronszajn tree. Here, it is proved that the same conclusion remains valid after replacing the hypothesis $\square ^*_\lambda$ by $\square (\lambda ^+,{ \lt }\lambda )$.

As $\square (\lambda ^+,{ \lt }\lambda )$ does not impose a bound on the order-type of the witnessing clubs, our construction is necessarily different from that of Ben-David and Shelah, and instead uses walks on ordinals augmented with club guessing.

A major component of this work is the study of postprocessing functions and their effect on square sequences. A byproduct of this study is the finding that for $\kappa$ regular uncountable, $\square (\kappa )$ entails the existence of a partition of $\kappa$ into $\kappa$ many fat sets. When contrasted with a classical model of Magidor, this shows that it is equiconsistent with the existence of a weakly compact cardinal that $\omega _2$ cannot be split into two fat sets.
