Methods for linear optical quantum Fredkin gate

We consider the realization of quantum Fredkin gate with only linear optics and single photons. First we construct a heralded Fredkin gate using four heralded controlled-not (CNOT) gates. Then we simplify this method to a post-selected one utilizing only two CNOT gates. We also give a possible realization of this method which is feasible with current experimental technology. Another post-selected scheme requires time entanglement of the input photons but needs no ancillary photons.
