Summary: We give some remarks on the structure of non-symmetric local Dirichlet forms. We first present LeJan’s transformation rule for their co-symmetric parts. Combined with the classical LeJan’s formula, it shows that essentially any local Dirichlet form must be given by differential operators (up to a killing part). Then, as applications, we use this formula to give explicit representations for local Dirichlet forms on both infinite and finite dimensional state spaces.
