## Summary

The authors propose TopoGS-SLAM, which decouples refinement from capacity using coverage-triggered Gaussian initialization and bounded-topology optimization, turning mapping into a bounded-dimensional problem. On standard indoor benchmarks, its localization and reconstruction accuracy is not inferior to densification-based pipelines, while memory scalability and throughput improve significantly. The authors therefore conclude that in bounded-area static indoor scenes with sufficient multi-view coverage, Gaussian SLAM does not require iterative topology mutation.
