 Scalar self-energy

The two-point, one-particle-irreducible correction for a scalar field. With an insertion denoted $-i\Sigma (p^2)$, the full scalar propagator is $i/[p^2-m^2-\Sigma (p^2)+i0]$. A divergent coefficient of $p^2$ requires wave-function renormalization; a momentum-independent divergent term requires a mass counterterm.
