  We conduct a study based on the Bures (minimal monotone) metric, analogous to
that recently reported for the Hilbert-Schmidt (flat or Euclidean) metric
(arXiv:0704.3723v2). Among the interesting results obtained there had been
proportionalities--in exact correspondence to the Dyson indices \beta = 1, 2, 4
of random matrix theory--between the fourth, second and first powers of the
separability functions S_{type}(\mu) for real, complex and quaternionic
qubit-qubit scenarios, Here \mu=\sqrt{\frac{\rho_{11} \rho_{44}}{\rho_{22}
\rho_{33}}}, with \rho being a 4 x 4 density matrix. Separability functions
have proved useful--in the framework of the Bloore (correlation
coefficient/off-diagonal scaling) parameterization of density matrices--for the
calculation of separability probabilities. We find--for certain, basic simple
scenarios (in which the diagonal entries of \rho are unrestricted, and one or
two off-diagonal [real, complex or quaternionic] pairs of entries are nonzero)
--that these proportionalities no longer strictly hold in the Bures case, but
do come remarkably close to holding.
