Quantum field theory is the most precisely verified framework in physics — QEDpredictions match experiment to twelve decimal places — and this paper does notchallenge its results within their domain of validity. Instead, it develops the geometricsubstrate from which quantum field behaviour emerges in the Cohesion Unified FieldTheory. The quantum field is interpreted as a continuous recursion medium: a pressurebearing substrate whose local torsion density, curvature, and recursion rate determinepropagation, interaction, and collapse. Wave functions are recursion patterns in themedium; particles are stable closure modes of recursion established in the particlephysics papers of this series; entanglement is shared structural time and collapse isstructural time synchronization as established in the quantum measurement paper. Thenew contributions of this paper are: (1) the vacuum as the recursion ground state ofthe medium, providing a pressure-bounded account of vacuum energy that avoids thevacuum energy catastrophe; (2) a unified table of all four interactions as torsion densityor phase alignment effects in the same medium; and (3) propagation as pressure-drivenrecursion, unifying wave propagation, particle motion, and field excitations under asingle mechanical rule. This is the first unified geometric ontology of the quantum fieldwithin the Cohesion UFT framework.
