In 1889, Bukreyev became a professor of mathematics at the University of Kiev, in Ukraine. He studied Fuchsian functions of rank zero. He was interested in projective and non-Euclidean geometry. He worked on differential invariants and parameters in the theory of surfaces, being interested in the history of mathematics.
