Congratulations Andrei for another
very good solution.
The 4 functions are:

I consider the logarithm in base e. First I plotted the 4 functions
using Graphmatica. In all figures
is violet,
is white,
is red and
is cyan.
For
I obtain:
For [-0.1, 0.1]
And for [-0.01, 0.01] I have:
Each of the 4 functions could be approximated using the Taylor
series expansion around 0, and the accuracy of the approximation
becomes better for values of
nearer to the origin. I shall use
the second order polynomial:
