Hello,

NDSolve seems to have difficulties with solving integral equation.

n = 5; NDSolve[{D[\[Sigma]norm[z, t], t] == 3*z*Integrate[\[Sigma]norm[z,
t]^n*z, {z, 0, 1}] - \[Sigma]norm[z, t]^n,
     \[Sigma]norm[z, 0] == 1.5*z, \[Sigma]norm[0, t] == 0}*\[Sigma]norm[z,
t], {z, 0.01, 1}, {t, 0.01, 2}]

Mathematica returns a message

NDSolve::"deql": "The first argument must have both an equation and an \
initial condition."

which I cannot understand.
Can anybody tell what's wrong with my attempt?

-Toshi
