He is most famous for his work on generalized Hilbert's problem on surfaces of negative curvature. Yefimov grew up in Rostov-on-Don and graduated from Rostov State University, where he studied with Morduhai-Boltovskoi. He worked at Voronezh State University from 1934 to 1941. He taught at the Moscow State University since 1946. Aleksei Pogorelov was one of his students there. He received the Lobachevsky Prize in 1951 and Lenin Prize in 1966.
