I have a Wisteria plant in my back garden which I planted from pot about ten years ago. It grows on a pergola along with an ivy, Clematis and a few roses. It flowered beautifully this year, but since then, there has been no new growth, no new shoots or leaves, and the leaves which are already present are turning yellow/brown and falling off. It gets plenty of sunlight and water, has no root rot and no damage to its trunk. It seems to be dying and I was wondering what is wrong with it. (We did have some late frost this year, but surely it should have recovered by now?)
I would check for crown or root galls. It sounds like something is choking the plant and galls would do that. Here is some information on them that may be healthy:

I have had a wisteria for quite a few years and it blooms once a year. This year it is starting to bloom again but it is the last week in July. I am not complaining, but I would like to know why it is blooming so late in the summer. Thank you.
There may be environmental reasons. Not a long enough or cold enough dormant period.
If the plant seems healthy otherwise, I would not worry.
My wisteria had a dusting of yellow on the leaves. Many of the established plants and new plants have this.
Yellow dusting could be pollen that has fallen from flowers. This would be normal and no issue to resolve.
Sometimes Rust fungus could be described as yellow so I'm giving you links with information on how to treat.
Can I plant wisteria seeds in the fall?
Spring would be the best time to plant and start seeds.

Wisteria leaves are dying at the ends and no new growth. We planted a wisteria 2 years ago. It was healthy then. It is in full sun. Now the leaves are turning yellow at the ends and it looks as if it is dying. We are only at the property for about 6 months of the year so wonder if it's lack of water.

If that doesn't turn up anything, it may have a fungus. Treat the plant with a fungicide. I like neem oil, as it will also deal with any pest issues the plant has and it is safe for people and pets. Here is more information on it: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/problems/pests/neem-oil-uses.htm
The offending Wisteria's main stem is in the no-mans-land between me and my neighbor, though I suspect it is mine. I want to kill the plants. There are two. Do I have to cut the stem before applying Roundup or can I simply spray the stem where it emerges from the ground?
Roundup probably will kill it either way. However, why don't you dig up the plant, once it is dormant (usually after the first frost) and give it to someone who would like it?
I planted a wisteria plant last fall next to our pergola in order to ultimately cover the top with foliage. This summer it had grown to a 6-foot high shoot that, up until yesterday, reached almost to the top of the pergola. However, a grasshopper cut the top end of the shoot. How do I get it to sprout from that broken shoot so it continues as the main branch of the plant rather than starting with a new shoot from the base of the plant?
You won't be able to grow the cutting from there but will have to root it if you want to keep that part. This article will help with this: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/vines/wisteria/propagating-wisteria-cuttings.htm
