Abstract

A distance-deviation consistency and model-independent method to test the cosmic distance duality relation (CDDR) is provided. The method is worth attention on two aspects: firstly, a distance-deviation consistency method is used to pair subsamples: instead of pairing subsamples with redshift deviation smaller than a \textbf{value}, say Δz<0.005\left\vert \Delta z\right\vert <0.005. The redshift deviation between subsamples decreases with the redshift to ensure the distance deviation stays the same. The method selects more subsamples at high redshift, up to z=2.16z=2.16, and provides 120 subsample pairs. Secondly, the model-independent method involves the latest data set of 10481048 type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and 205205 strong gravitational lensing systems (SGLS), which are used to obtain the luminosity distances DLD_L and the ratio of angular diameter distance DAD_A respectively. With the model-independent method, parameters of the CDDR, the SNe Ia light-curve, and the SGLS are fitted simultaneously. \textbf{The result shows} that η=0.0470.151+0.190\eta = 0.047^{+0.190}_{-0.151} and CDDR is validated at 1σ\sigma confidence level for the form DLDA(1+z)2=1+ηz\frac{{{D_L}}}{{{D_A}}}{(1 + z)^{ - 2}} =1+ \eta z.
