Solutions of the P. J. Ryan problem as well as investigations of curvature properties of Cartan hypersurfaces and Ricci-pseudosymmetric hypersurfaces lead to curvature identities holding on every hypersurface M isometrically immersed in a semi-Riemannian space form. These identities, under some assumptions, give rises to new generalized Einstein metric conditions on M. We investigate hypersurfaces satisfying such curvature conditions.
